The only problem with an online pharmacy is that the prescription has to be mailed to you--and you thus have to wait for it. For some things it's all right to do this (I've used Costco.com for this), but when one needs, say, an antibiotic or a pain medication, one must have it immediately. My experience is that no retail pharmacy will tell you what a prescription will cost until it is actually filled and billed to an insurance company (which I suspect--though I may be wrong--is ridiculous). Even if I am wrong--or for that matter even if I'm right--I can still reject the prescription and get the original document back to take elsewhere.
