1. Buy Direct

When possible go direct to the source for the best price. Otherwise, buy through authorized dealers / resellers for service. Learn more

Why do you want to buy from a middleman when you can buy direct? How do you think Walmart brings you the lowest prices in the world? Not because they buy from resellers. Its because they buy directly from the source, leverage their buying power, and are themselves the resellers. Now you too can buy India product directly from the source and reduce your costs by cutting out the middleman of Canadian & Overseas Online pharmacies . Buck A Day Pharmacy owns a mail order pharmacy in India and is able to bring you attractive India direct low prices. At Buck A Day Pharmacy we Provide North American Pharmacist Counseling, North American Client Care Management, Forex conversion, Drug utilization Review, Document Transcription and fill your orders on our state of the art paperless pharmacy system, all for a maximum service charge of only 40 cents per day, in many cases it can also be lower. What this means to you is, you are in effect buying medicines at a maximum of 40 cents more per day than an Indian consumer living in India would pay to buy prescription medications. The only way to buy it cheaper in our mind, is to fly to India and buy the product (once you've found a pharmacy you are comfortable dealing with that understand north American medications and local equivalents). But wait! Why Fly to India when Buck A Day Pharmacy offers world-wide delivery?

 

2. Licensed Pharmacy and a Pharmacist the can dispense your order.

Governments regulate pharmacies and pharmacists to protect the public's best interest. Don't take chances; make certain the India pharmacy, even if you buy through a Canadian or other middleman, is in fact governed. Learn more
Buy from an organized and reputable pharmacy. Did you know India has more than 800,000 pharmacies? Majority of them look like this (have link to India pharmacy pics over here). Many of them also operate without a full time pharmacist. Do you know which pharmacy your current Canadian reseller is buying from in India? Have you ever asked them?

Check all licenses

Do other online pharmacies, be it from Canada or overseas reseller, inform you about the licenses of the pharmacy that is buying from? Why don't you ask them?

4. Prescription Required

If anyone is willing to diagnose your condition and sell you any product without a prescription, even when contrary to local laws, you should be cautious of where else they are cutting corners. Learn more

Does the pharmacy require a valid prescription? This is one of the most important criteria to look for in establishing credibility. A pharmacy must dispense pharmaceutical only with a valid prescription. There are a lot of pharmacies out there that will dispense anything without any care or concern for the patient. At Buck A Day Pharmacy our primary concern is you and your health. So we will never dispense a product unless we have a valid prescription written by your doctor that you have physically seen. This is for your protection.

 

5. Avoid Drug Dealers

Illegal and organized crime are profiting by pedaling dangerous addictive medications online without being under the supervision of a health professional.

If you stumble across a "pharmacy" that sells sleep drugs and other controlled substances, this is a sure give away about a scam artist. If the pharmacy sells Valium or Xanax do not buy from them. This is a suspect pharmacy and you must be concerned about their basic practices on customer and patient care. They are most likely smugglers evading the law. You are putting your health and Personal Identification and Credit in the hands of criminals - shoppers, be aware.

 

6. Real People

Part of any investigation should be to know whom the people are that your doing business with. We have profiles of key individuals that have been with us for 5 years or more. Our chief pharmacist is Mr. Mitesh Gandhi (see his video introduction) who has been a pharmacist in India for more than 12 years. Our chief administration officer is Mr. SudeepHalder who has been working in Indian pharmacy industry for 7 years. Our technician team has been working in the mail order pharmacy business for 5 years, filling prescriptions for other international mail order pharmacies (see video of our team).

 

7. Product Verification.

How do you know you are getting the right product? How do you know what you are buying if you don't see it first? Are all Generic products the same? Who regulates the safety and efficacy of these medications? Learn more

Are pharmacy and product pictures available online for you to view? You must view the packaging and name of the product that you plan to order. This is the only way you can match the product you ordered with the one that comes in the pack delivered to your home.

Product Information- Do you know that at last count there were more than 120 different names under which the generic of Plavix sells in India? There are 65 different names under which generic of Lipitor sells in India. These are called branded generics in India where an Indian company sells the generic version under its own name. If you didn't already know, India has more than 15,000 manufacturers. I would say when considering options for my very own family, only the top 20 manufacturers are worth buying from, . Each product that these manufacturers sell have a specific name under which they sell. So the next time your Canadian reseller tells you that you will be getting Plavix generic from India, ask them, "which one is it?". Meaning, what is the exact name on the pack and who has manufactured it. Ensure that the product that you receive bears the same name as the one you ordered. DO NOT ALLOW substitution with other names. You may not know what you are buying. At Buck A Day Pharmacy we have clear pictures and names of all products including pill shots so that you know exactly what you are buying.

Manufacturer Information - As per Indian FDA law any product sold in India must have the name and address of the physical location where it has been manufactured. You need to know about this, as there are many resellers who are selling unregulated export packs. These packs do not bear any specific name of the place of manufacturing. While the reseller may tell you that it is a pack meant for some South East Asian countries consider the fact that even countries like Kenya and Nigeria require the place of manufacturing printed on the product pack so that should an issue arrive regulators can investigate the responsible party. So which country could packs without place of manufacture be for? We do know that Afghanistan does not require anyone to print the place of manufacture address. At least till now. At Buck A Day Pharmacy we will only sell you product where we are sure about the source of the product and is governed by regulations for quality and effectiveness. Here is what to look for[Compare export pack photo to local India Photo]

 

8. Security and Privacy

Are there measures to protect your personal identification and credit. Identity theft is a "Billion Dollar Industry" don't be part of the statistics. Learn more

Information Security- Is the site verisign approved? Anyone can put a logo on a site. Click here to verify
Has the pharmacy signed a privacy agreement with the reseller to protect your health and other information? If so ask to see a copy of it (link to our signed copy).

Does the pharmacy use state of the art software? Our paperless system allows consumers, service personal, and the pharmacists to all obtain your orders via closed permission based system. Nothing can get lost.

 

9. Free therapeutic counseling

The products you order overseas can look very different than those you are accustomed. When you get your order that can assure you that you received the correct product, advise you on use, and discuss effects. We have product specific trained councilors.

Saving money may be the primary motivation but that must not come at the expense or world-class customer service from a very real and caring company. Knowing that products have market variations including look and name t, our health professionals are well aware the USA products and our equivalents. If you have a product question or therapy questions licensed professionals are only a phone call away.

 

10. Technology

Software is essential to ensure that the right products are delivered to you in the right quantity at the right price on time. There are many pharmacies who accept orders manually and sure mom and papa operation can do that. How can they be sure that errors are not being made? At Buck A Day Pharmacy we use software developed and maintain by Metrex (www.metrex.net) who are Canadian mail order systems pioneers. Meaning our system meets or exceeds the Canadian requirements.

 

11. Guarantees

• 100% satisfaction guarantee: If for any reason you are unhappy with the product when you receive it, call us to get a 100% refund on your order, no questions asked.
