Testimonials

"I have 4 children. They consist of a 5 year old son, a 3 year old daughter and 2 cats. Pill time has never been easy, especially for my son. Because of the ordeal, I even opted to skip a few doses on more than one occasion. However, once I heard about Prevacid I tried it. Well, I no longer have to “hunt” the kids down and force the medicine in their mouths. Thank you, Prevacid!"

Thank you for your quick response to my email regarding my Prevacid order. I received my order today! I am very impressed with your service.

F.A.Q

What are the differences between Prevacid brand-name drugs and Prevacid generic drugs?
You probably know that pharmaceutical companies carry out extensive research and clinical testing to win approval from the Food and Drug Administration for new drugs. The new drug is then protected by patent for at least 10 years. Hence, a brand-name drug. When the patent expires another drug company can "copy the recipe" for the brand drug. This "copy" is called a generic drug. The FDA requires that generic Prevacid have the same active chemical composition, be dispensed in the same dosage form such as a tablet or capsule and be taken in the same dosage as the brand-name drug.

Q: Do you deliver Prevacid to P.O Boxes?
A: Our policy excludes the P.O Boxes as a possibility for a shipment.
