It seems like, at best you could hope for "Unapproved" status, as they won't approve any pharmacy not physically located in the United States. So, I wouldn't worry too much about LegitScript.

Per http://www.legitscript.com/pharmacies/standards

My bet is that they're also not going to approve any pharmacy selling generic versions of drugs still under patent in the US, even if those drugs are out of patent in the countries where they're being manufactured/sourced and they're manufactured to the standards of other Western FDA type organisations.

So this "swiss" pharmacy doesn't actually ship to Switzerland? lol

Switzerland has a few duty free zones. Businesses located in these can serve online clients, but typically can't trade outside those zones. That's how it works for a variety of online cigar vendors anyway.

i cant seem to find Dill (Anethum Graveolens) on the site. would be appreciated if you guys can get it.

Ordered May 31 and paid with bitcoins.  Received June 27.  It arrived in a plain brown envelope from India.

The product seems fine.  It is generics, and not name-brand.

In the past I have bought my meds from inhousepharmacy, and usually receive it within 2 weeks.  However, like many online pharmacies, their credit-card processing can be unreliable, so it's nice to have an alternative that accepts bitcoin.

I will consider ordering from theswisspharmacy again, as long as it's something I don't need sooner than 4 weeks.

Jon Matonis just wrote an article on this:

In June 2011, Visa (and Mastercard similarly) made a series of changes to their operating regulations and explicitly classified pharmaceutical-related merchant category codes as “high-risk” along with gambling and various kinds of direct marketing services.

Online pharmacy should have them, I'm not in need of them enough to go to SR

The comments in Jon Matonis's aforementioned Forbes article have links to a couple of other online pharmacies that also accept bitcoins. You could check if they have what you want. The Swiss Pharmacy does seem the most legit of the bunch, though.

AFAIK, eupillz was the first online pharmacy accepting Bitcoin:

-> EU based, very well known in german community.

A question to Urs Moeckli:

What countries you do not ship orders to?
Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, Germany, India, Iraq, Ireland, Lybia, Netherlands, Nigeria, North Korea, Norway, Pakistan, Portugal, Seychelles, Slovakia, Somalia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland

Why do you not ship to these destinations (which include a great many major European countries), and do you have any plans to remedy that situation?

Yes, I am curious why "theswisspharmacy" won't ship to Switzerland ...

[josephliton]

Do you ship to south Asia?

[Stephen Gornick]

Funny how something that comes from India won't ship to India

[Staring Owl]

Really have to ask, if all drugs come from india directly why it's called Swiss pharmacy?
Also curious why you won't ship to half of west Europe. Especially Germany, that should bring you the most business after UK.

Is it drop shipping based?

[Staring Owl]

Btw did the bitcoin way of payment got any traction for you?
