About us
Are you a pharmacy?
Yes. DrugsGeneral is an international pharmacy service. Licensed partner pharmacies supply your medicine, and our pharmacists review your order and prescription. We pack it (cold-chain where needed), prepare the paperwork, ship it and track it to you.
Who dispenses my medicine?
A licensed partner pharmacy. Email [email protected] with your order number and we will tell you which one is filling your order.
Can your pharmacists give me medical advice?
They can answer questions about your order, how a medicine is used and what the leaflet says. They do not diagnose or change a prescription. For decisions about your treatment, speak to your doctor.
Who owns the brands?
Brand names, logos and product images belong to their owners and are used only to identify the product. See our Legal Notice.
Ordering
Do I need a prescription?
For prescription medicines, yes. Upload it at checkout or on the Upload prescription page. A pharmacist reviews it before your order ships.
How do I join?
Enter your email on the join page. We send a 6-digit code and a one-tap link. There is no password and no fee. Your member passport is created straight away.
Can you find a medicine that is not on the site?
Yes. Send us the name or a prescription and a pharmacist will look for it.
Is the medicine genuine?
We work only with licensed partner pharmacies and authorised channels, and a pharmacist checks every order before it ships. If something looks wrong on arrival, do not use it and contact us.
Prices and payment
What does “up to 85% off” mean?
We compare our price with the typical price of the same medicine at local retail in the West. It is a maximum, not a promise for every product. Each product page shows its own saving. Read more on How we save you money.
How can I pay?
You will see the payment methods available to you at checkout, with step-by-step instructions for each. For most methods you upload a screenshot of your payment.
When is my order confirmed?
After we verify your payment and the dispensing pharmacy verifies your prescription where needed. You get an email at every step.
Shipping and customs
Where do you ship?
Our shipping countries are Australia, Russia, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom (UK), United States (US). If your country is not listed, please contact us.
How do I track my order?
Join and open your order. You also get the tracking number and a tracking link by email when it is dispatched.
What if my medicine needs to stay cold?
We pack it in temperature-controlled packaging. Be there to receive it and store it as the label says. If it arrives warm, open or late, do not use it and contact us the same day. See Cold-chain orders.
Will customs be a problem?
You are responsible for making sure the medicine can lawfully be imported where you live, and for any duties. We pack discreetly and include the documents customs usually ask for. If customs holds a parcel we will help where we can. See Import rules and customs.

Can I change or cancel my order?
Message a pharmacist or email [email protected] with your order number as soon as you can. We can cancel an order that has not been dispatched. After dispatch, the return rules apply.
Can I return an order?
Within 7 days of delivery if the items are unopened and in the original sealed packaging, or if they arrived damaged, defective or wrong. Email [email protected] to start a return. Cold-chain products that arrived as ordered cannot be returned.
