The FDA issued a warning that it had purchased counterfeit Tamiflu, sold as “Generic Tamiflu,” from an online drugstore that is no longer accessible. It’s believed that the product is still available online. The mystery purchaser did not have to provide a prescription even though Tamiflu is a prescription-only product. PharmacyChecker.com advises consumers not to use pharmacies that do not require a prescription. Online pharmacy-members of the PharmacyChecker.com Verification Program must require prescriptions and be licensed by their respective pharmacy regulatory authorities or equivalent body.
