    Hi

    Looking for an online chemist that anyone can recommend?

    Ive previously used chemistdirect 3 or 4 times but they take so long to deliver (every order more took more than 4 weeks) that i got fed up with them.

    so looking for somewhere with the same prices but with quicker delivery?

    Thanks

    Isn't ordering pharmaceuticals online illegal in Ireland? A friend of line ordered inhalers from some site (outside of Ireland) and got a nasty letter from customs...

    You might try these guys http://www.expresschemist.co.uk I gave up on chemistdirect a year ago. Gooners :mad:
    Now I haven't used these guys but the reviews are favorable although shipping could be expensive.

    BTW thesteve there are lots of non-prescription items available in pharmacies only that are 2 to 10 dearer in Ireland than in the UK. e.g. berocca, eyedrops, toothpaste, paracetomal etc.

    I don't think we're talking Ciali$ etc. :)

    If its a prescription medicine, then yes you need authorisation and the product will almost certainly be stopped.

    If its an over the counter product such as Paracetemol / Fixonase (2 items I've purchased online) then there doesn't seem to be an issue.

    For basics such as paracetemol etc I've used http://discounthealthproducts.co.uk/ - payment is by paypal and they take about 7 days for delivery.

    Ok, Just an update on this.

    Its non perscription stuff i was ordering so no legal problems.

    Anyway i tried this website http://www.pharmacy2u.co.uk/pharmacy.aspx

    Prices for what i wanted were pretty much the same as chemist direct,
    Delivery was 7 pounds, I ordered tuesday and got the package this morning!
