Licensing and Accreditation

Like the corner drug store, online pharmacies must be licensed by the state or province in which they are located. We require all pharmacies in our database to be certified and in good standing with their state or provincial boards.

Our rigorous approval process also requires endorsements or certifications from third-party organizations such as the Internet and Mail Order Pharmacy Accreditation Commission (IMPAC), Canadian International Pharmacy Association (CIPA), Verified Internet Pharmacy Practice Sites (VIPPS), Pharmacy Checker, Manitoba International Pharmacists Association (MIPA), National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA), and the Better Business Bureau Online (BBBOnline). You may contact any of these organizations with the information below.
