Press Releases

New research released today reveals that over 2.25 million people in the UK buy prescription medicines online, yet up to one third of these medicines are fake and therefore present a real danger to people’s health. The research also reveals that many British people are in the dark about online regulations for medical sites - with 1 in 20 wrongly believing that foreign websites are fully regulated.

Until now, there has been no official system in place for people to verify the authenticity of the online pharmacy and the medicines for sale.  

As a response to this growing online danger, The Royal Pharmaceutical Society today launches a new internet logo scheme to help people validate authentic websites for their online purchases. This logo will appear on registered websites including a hyperlink to the Society's website where visitors can verify the registration details of both the pharmacy and pharmacist.
