Visitors to small border towns in Mexico are likely to see numerous "farmacias" along the streets. These establishments often resemble small stores with an individual in a white lab coat at the counter. A major concern is that the medications available may not be genuine.
The FDA cautions consumers about these potential dangers, emphasizing that drugs from foreign countries are not regulated by the FDA. Consequently, they lack the assured safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality guaranteed for medications in the United States.
Adding to these concerns is the rise of online pharmacies. If a website doesn't display the VIPPS logo, there’s uncertainty about the origin of its medications. VIPPS certification, granted by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP), ensures adherence to high standards, including patient privacy, secure prescription orders, a recognized quality assurance policy, and meaningful patient-pharmacist consultation.
