The Case for Choosing Online Pharmacies and Marley Drug
What are Online Pharmacies and are They Safe?
With an ever-expanding horizon of contactless services evolving from the necessities of the COVID-19 pandemic, pharmacies aren’t lagging behind.
Online pharmacies refer to a pharmaceutical business organization that is involved in the sale of non-prescription and prescription-only drugs, by ordering them online and delivering them through the mail. While tangible conventional pharmacies have a drug distribution system with track and trace technology, e-pharmacies like Marley Drug utilize an efficient and cost-saving internet-based verification model that both authenticates drug prescriptions and inventories and dispenses medication for shipment through the same server.
The National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) reports that “over 90% of internet pharmacy sites out there are not in compliance with the United States pharmacy laws and standards.”
Signs to Look for When Researching Online Pharmacies
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sets out clear guidelines for U.S. consumers on how to make sure they are safely purchasing medicine online. Signs that a pharmacy is legal and ethical are:
- that they always require a prescription from a physician (for prescription drugs)
- have a licensed pharmacist on staff for queries, and
- are also licensed by a state board of pharmacy.
On the other hand, warning signs to look for are:
- that it does not require a prescription,
- isn’t licensed,
- sends odd or damaged-looking products,
- and does not provide a clear address of their operations or instructions on how to use the medication.
Despite these precautions, it is estimated by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development that counterfeit sales approximated a $200 billion industry in the U.S. alone. However, there does exist honest, safe, and ethical e-pharmacies all across the United States, and Marley Drug is one of them.

No Need for Insurance with Marley Drug
A key modeling technique of Marley Drug to offer its customers affordable medications is through cash only payments. That is because, shockingly, cash payments can be lower for many drugs than their insurance co-pay counterparts.
A fact that many consumers aren’t aware of is that insurance companies and Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs) who manage your health plans are the ones who actually decide the price you pay for medications at the pharmacy, not the pharmacy itself. In many cases the price they want you to pay is inflated with administrative fees. At Marley Drug we can offer you a much more affordable option.
We also lower the price of medications by offering them in our Wholesale Price List. This is particularly beneficial if one has a chronic or long-lasting condition where they will be taking the medication indefinitely. Buying in bulk means reducing maintenance and dispensary costs by a considerable margin.
Good examples of medications that could be bought in bulk are drugs for mental health conditions like Wellbutrin and Zoloft, or high cholesterol medications like Crestor or Lipitor.

Get your Medications Online from a Trusted Source
Research has repeatedly shown that customers prioritize cost and convenience over any other rationale when purchasing medications online.
Misrepresentation and lack of education have given rise to many fraudulent companies selling drugs to consumers by taking advantage of their lack of knowledge, which in turn makes it more difficult for authentic and regulated pharmacies like Marley Drug to make an impact and draw larger and more diverse bodies of consumers.
We have made substantial efforts at being transparent about its business model, prices, and its staff to remain a trusted business within the community. We hope to earn your business and be your trusted source of affordable medications for years to come.
