$1 /month.
that’s a pretty weak listGeneric equivalents for 13 drugs that treat diabetes, blood pressure, and other ailments (including a Lipitor substitute) are included in the offer.
Amazon is smart and famous; if there's a will, there's a way. Their business involves logistics alreadyyep, magic words "up to". Good luck is all I'll say. Is amazon really prepared to handle all the customer service aspects of the slew of various parameters (MD, suppliers/OOS, patient manufacturer requests, laws & regulations, pharmaceutical waste, etc.) which can affect filling a prescription?
Logistics can only do so much when dealing with perishable products. How come Amazon isn't killing grocery chains?Amazon is smart and famous; if there's a will, there's a way. Their business involves logistics already
It's not like creating cars de novo (here's to you, Mr. Musk)

Raise your hand if you've ever had your amazon package delivered to the wrong address. I'm still not convinced they've got the logistical chops to kill pharmacy.
You think porch pirates are bad now...wait until there might be oxys in them thar boxes!And what happens when someone claims they didn't get their package but they actually did? For most stuff, Amazon just ships out another item.
I once got an empty bag. I think the driver might have stolen my item. Amazon gave me a refund though.Raise your hand if you've ever had your amazon package delivered to the wrong address. I'm still not convinced they've got the logistical chops to kill pharmacy.

Numerous times & several "lost in transit" (seems to be getting worse); what's more alarming is the fake documentation that something was delivered (Boycotting).Raise your hand if you've ever had your amazon package delivered to the wrong address.

I wish they would get rid of cheap chinese junk and fake reviews. I have limited my purchases of amazon because I found lot of the products are crap.Numerous times & several "lost in transit" (seems to be getting worse); what's more alarming is the fake documentation that something was delivered (Boycotting).
Kind of disgusted at how wasteful Amazon is overall; probably not such a good idea to mix this into pharmacy. I sure as hell have zero faith/trust in proper storage conditions of perishable goods from Amazon & zero trust in labeling (stickers often plastered over crucial stuff like lot#, expiration date, actual manufacturer product label)
Anyone wish they'd just go back to selling books & media? LOL
Yep. Didn't get that 90 day fiorcet so hook me up.And what happens when someone claims they didn't get their package but they actually did? For most stuff, Amazon just ships out another item.
