NABP Awards Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites™ (VIPPS™) Certification to Tel-Drug Rx®

6/2/00

This certification permits Tel-Drug Rx to display the VIPPS hyperlink seal of approval on its Web site. The VIPPS seal attests that Tel-Drug Rx is properly licensed with the appropriate state boards of pharmacy, and has met a rigorous 17-point criteria review that considers patient confidentiality, security of prescriptions, a quality assurance program, and patient-pharmacist consultation. By clicking on the seal, consumers will be able to find the verified information they need to make informed decisions regarding their choice of online pharmacies.

Tel-Drug Rx is a mail order pharmacy program offered by Tel-Drug, Inc, especially for maintenance medications prescribed for long-term treatment of chronic conditions. Tel-Drug Rx also provides toll-free customer service and 24-hour refill ordering and emergency pharmacy services.

Participation in the VIPPS certification program is voluntary. The program was developed to provide consumers with reliable means to identify those online pharmacies that have proven their ability and authorization to dispense pharmaceuticals to the public in the jurisdictions listed on the VIPPS Web site.
