In this time of confinement, more and more people are shopping online. Unfortunately, fraud on the internet is also on the rise. To protect the general public from fraudulent medicine vendors, the European Medicines Agency (EMA) is urging not to buy medicines from unauthorised vendors. You should only buy medicines from a local pharmacy or retailer or from an online pharmacy that is registered with the national competent authorities. You can find the lists of registered online pharmacies in EU countries via EMA’s website or directly from websites of the national competent authorities.
