- How can I be sure I am buying the right treatment?
If you have not used a particular medication before and are not sure whether it is suitable for you, we would advise that you see your doctor to discuss it person, before placing an order online.
When you opt to buy a specific treatment from our site, you will be presented with a medical questionnaire. You should ensure that your answers accurately reflect your current medical state, so that our prescriber can determine whether the product you are buying is right for you. This means disclosing all relevant information pertaining to your medical history, and anything else our prescriber may need to know; such as your overall health or lifestyle habits, allergies, or information about other medicines you are currently using.
Once our prescriber has reviewed your order, they will send you some important safety information. Please make sure you read and understand this fully before proceeding with your order.
- What is included in the price?
The listed price for each product is all inclusive, covering the cost of your medicine, consultation, and express delivery on Mondays to Saturdays.
- What happens if my order is rejected?
In the event that the medication you have ordered has been found unsuitable for you for any reason by the prescriber, or the pharmacist, you’ll be notified by email, and you won’t be charged.
- What happens once I have ordered?
The answers you have supplied to the questions in your medical assessment are then reviewed by one of our GMC-registered doctors or UK pharmacy prescribers.
Once your order has been confirmed as suitable for you, our prescriber will send you a notification, inviting you to review the advice and safety information provided by them.
Once you have confirmed that you have read and understood this, an electronic prescription is issued by the doctor, and your order is passed on to the pharmacy.
Your medication is then dispensed and shipped to your door within one working day.
- How can I make sure I get my order within 24 hours?
To ensure you receive your treatment in as timely manner as possible, we would advise that you keep an eye out for emails and texts with updates about your order.
After reviewing your case, the doctor or pharmacist may ask you to provide further information relating to your order.
Once the doctor or pharmacy prescriber has approved your order, they will always ask you to review their advice and safety information before passing your order on to the dispensing pharmacy.
If you are asked by our doctor or pharmacist to review information or answer additional safety questions, it is important to do so as soon as you can, to help us ensure your order is not subject to delay.
On Mondays to Fridays, orders approved by the doctor before 4pm will arrive the following day.
Orders placed after 4pm on Fridays and at weekends will be delivered no later than the following Tuesday.
For UK customers placing their order before 4pm on Friday, we offer a free Saturday delivery service at no extra cost.
- Do I need to fill in the questionnaire every time I order?
Yes. You will need to retake the questionnaire each time you order and provide up-to-date information, so that the prescriber can accurately assess your case.
- Will I receive a confirmation from you?
Yes. We will keep you updated at every stage of your order by email, and also by text message if you have supplied your mobile number.
If you need any further assistance, our customer care team is ready and waiting to help.
- Can I cancel my order?
If your order has not yet been approved by our prescriber, you can still cancel it. Just get in touch with our customer care team, and they’ll cancel it for you. If you cancel your order with us before it is approved, you won’t be charged.
Please note that we will be unable to cancel your order or make amendments to it once it has been approved by our doctor.
(When our doctor has reviewed your order, you will receive an email letting you know.)
- How does ordering a test kit work?
We offer two types of test kit: pathology lab tests, and self-test kits that give you a result at home.
When you order a pathology lab test, we’ll send you a kit containing everything you need to collect your blood or urine sample. Once you’ve collected this according to the instructions, you’ll need to send it to our pathology partners in the box and envelope provided. Our pathology partners will then analyse your sample. They can usually turn around urine test results in 1-2 days, and blood test results in a few hours.
When your result is ready, they’ll notify us, and we’ll send your result to your secure patient area. When your result is ready to be viewed, you can see it by logging in. If your test result indicates you need further treatment, our prescriber will provide information on this.
The other type of test kits we offer don’t need to go to a lab to be analysed, and can provide a result at home in a few minutes. When you order these test kits from us, you’ll receive everything you need in the kit to perform your test, but out prescribers won’t be notified of your result. You’ll need to follow the instructions provided in the leaflet with the kit, if your result indicates you need to seek treatment.
