For Real?

I ordered 180 pills through a pharmacy called rx-epharm. It turns out that they were sent from a pharmacy in Hong Kong. I recieved the pills today. I only paid $324 for them. They don't look like the ones I recieved previously. These are blue and white capsules with A-167 on each side of it. I talked with my pharmacist and he said that this is a generic form of Phentermine. I am not too worried, but what do you all think? I am just leary that it is not the same thing. The first pills I got looked like little tic tacs with blue spots. I have looked it up on the internet and can't find a picture of the ones I recieved today. Good news is that I recieved my order within 5 days of the order. So what is your input? Thanks in advance everyone! I hope you all are doing well.

Hi Megan, The medication you have is manufactured by Physicians Total Care. I am not in any way advocating this "pharmacy" I do not recommend that anyone order meds from an overseas pharmacy. It just isn't safe. dawg

Thank you so much! That is what I needed to know. I won't be leary about taking it now. My pharmacist said that it sounds like the real thing but he couldn't tell me whether or not to take it due to liability reasons. I know you aren't telling me to take it but that it is the real thing. Thanks again, it is appreciated.

Megan, Not a problem. Feel free to ask me anytime you have questions or concerns about medication. :razz: dawg

I have one more question for you. I broke open one of the capsals and ther is powder in it, is this normal? I just want to make sure before taking one. Thanks!

Hi Megan, Yes, they have what looks like baby powder inside. Just out of curiousity, Why did you break one open? :razz: dawg

My mom and I were talking and I decided to open one and make sure that it was the right thing. I had planned on asking you no matter what was inside. One of my main concerns is that it was empty. My pharmasist says that sometimes other countries will do that. They will make a capsule that looks just like the real thing and put nothing in them. That's why. Thank you for answering my question.

](*,) Hey Megan, That is just one more reason why anyone placing an online order should not order from an overseas company, and should know who they are ordering from. Overseas Pharmaceutical Companies are not regulated as U.S. companies are. It really is just not safe. :???: dawg
