How difficult is it to get a prescription online?
I want to try a Wellbutrin prescription for my depression, what I've read in reviews of other sufferers , sounds spot on to my problems. It's sold online , how does the online evaluation process for prescriptions work?
I'd rather not go to a local psychiatrist, I have anxiety, and besides, office visits are expensive.

I really would not recommend to start using any medicine on your own without professional medical attention. It may result in serious health problems or may be even death for some people..
If your doc has verified that this med is really safe for you
you can save some money if you order meds online, just check the pharmacies very careful before you buy anything.
Here are some tips from my experience with online drugstores.
One thing I know for sure – do not buy anything from a pharmacy that sends spam emails, I know a few guys who been ripped that way, including
myself. Also avoid pharmacies that have got well known SCAM products on their product lists (like penis/breast enlargement pills, viagra for
women and other questionable "products") It is a very big chance that their prescription meds are also fake.
When you have found something that looks like a good and trusted pharmacy, check if the pharmacy has got a live support chat or a support
phone number. If you have any doubts I suggest to contact the support staff before placing any orders, because if your shipping will be
delayed or if there will be any other problems, it is better you have already tested the quality of support they can provide. Also ask the support what are their shipping and refund policies.
http://www.half-price-pharmacy.net probably is one of the cheapest sites online. Have ordered a couple times, the meds work ok, just as the
ones I can get at Wal Mart. It is from the UK and I feel much better ordering from a British pharmacy than a pharmacy from India or Mexico.
Of course If I were taking a life saving chemical (heart medication, as example) I would want the branded product from my local pharmacy. If
it is not life saving get the generic and save 50% or more.

It is unfortunately way too easy to get what should be an illegal prescription online.
People who self-diagnose and self-prescribe are very similar to those who choose to represent themselves in court. They have fools for clients.

You have to have a prescription first…in order to purchase it online.
You will have to go to a psychiatrist or medical dr in order to get the prescription.
As for the anxiety, you would benefit from going to the Dr for that also. They can give you something like buspar or another mild drug to aid you in dealing with the anxiety.
As far as the office visits being overly expensive, every community has a low income mental health office in it, or one near by. Most work on a sliding fee scale. You can get in cheaper or even nothing……but please, do not just take any drug you can get.
Go to the Dr. get the help you need in a safe manner.
Good luck to you, I know this is difficult.

I think it is very hard to get prescription medicine online. They have really cracked down on it. My best luck was in Mexico, but how safe it that? If you can just pay for office visit or go to a clinic, many general practioners will prescribe wellbutrin or prozac. And the other answer was correct, online (illegal) prescriptions are Really expensive. Walmart sells some prescriptions for $4.00. If you had the med before, tell the dr. how well it worked and that you need it again. Have a milligram and dosage in mind so she can work with that. Maybe you won’t have to go back often. Tell the dr. you don’t have much money or insurance and they will usually give you a BIG break for cash.
This is the best way cause it will be cheaper than buying over the internet.
My experience with the online evaluation was that it was a joke. They ask you a few questions, but not many. However, it’s about what a real doctor will ask. The difference is that he/she can’t see you, take your stats, or do any tests.
