Forum Thread: Accutane 40mg Order from India
Posted by: HealthEnthusiast72
Date: 15th July 2023
Hi everyone,
I have been struggling with severe acne for a long time and my dermatologist recommended Accutane. I want to order it online but I’m confused about where to get the genuine product, especially since it’s not easily available in my country. Someone told me that India has good options. Can anyone give advice on how to safely order Accutane 40 mg from India? Are there any reliable websites or pharmacies?
Thanks!

Hello HealthEnthusiast72,
Firstly, it's important to understand that ordering medications online from another country can be risky. Accutane is a prescription-only medication and must be prescribed by a licensed doctor due to its potential side effects.
Instead of ordering directly from India, I would suggest you discuss with your dermatologist the possibility of getting this medicine locally or through a reliable pharmacy that imports it legally. If you still want to consider online options, look for reputable international pharmacies that are registered and regulated. Always verify their credentials and read reviews carefully.
Make sure any site you use requires a valid prescription from your doctor before shipping any medication. Do not buy from sites offering the drug without a prescription as this is illegal and could result in receiving counterfeit drugs.
Wishing you all the best with your treatment!

Hey HealthEnthusiast72,
I’m a pharmacist who has worked in several countries including India. While it's tempting to order from there due to cheaper prices, I highly recommend against it unless you're absolutely sure about the source.
There are strict regulations around selling prescription medications online, and while some sites might seem legitimate, they can still pose significant risks. The safest option is always to work through your local healthcare provider or a reputable international pharmacy that complies with FDA/CMPA guidelines (if in North America).
If you still plan on buying from India, ensure the site has a valid license, good reviews from multiple users, and asks for a prescription before shipping.
Be cautious and prioritize safety!

Hello HealthEnthusiast72,
I had a similar issue with getting Accutane. My dermatologist gave me several options, including an online pharmacy based in India that she personally vouched for. However, I ended up sticking to my local pharmacist who imported it legally.
While ordering from India might be cheaper, there are many risks involved—like not knowing the quality or if you’ll even receive your order. Plus, if something goes wrong and you need medical help, dealing with an overseas pharmacy can complicate things further.
I would strongly recommend getting a prescription from your doctor and then asking them to guide you on reliable sources within your country first.
Good luck!

Thank you all for the detailed responses. I’ll definitely talk to my dermatologist more about this and see if there are better options locally or through a registered pharmacy.
It’s reassuring to know that safety should be the top priority, even though it might mean spending a bit more.
Appreciate your insights!
