Rx Outreach Approved Through NABP's .Pharmacy Verified Websites Program

ST. LOUIS - April 12, 2019 - PRLog -- Rx Outreach has been approved through the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy® (NABP®) .Pharmacy Verified Websites Program. Earning approval through the .Pharmacy Program enables Rx Outreach to register a .pharmacy domain name for its website. A .pharmacy domain is part of a website's address like ".com" or ".biz", allowing consumers to more easily recognize www.RxOutreach.pharmacy/ as a trustworthy place to shop and learn about prescription medications.  Additionally, because the "seal of approval" is in the website address .pharmacy is a seal of safety that provides an additional layer of security and legitimacy to assure you that the website and organization is a legitimate business.

The .Pharmacy Program was created to provide consumers around the world with a means for easily identifying safe and legitimate online pharmacies or pharmacy-related websites. Since .pharmacy is a verified domain, to be approved, domain applicants undergo an evaluation process based on 10 core safety standards.

"Rx Outreach is honored to be accredited through the NABP. We are happy to continue our mission to be a trustworthy and reputable pharmacy where customers can get the medication they need," notes Pete Wyatt, Vice President/ Chief Marketing Officer at Rx Outreach.

According to NABP, out of the more than 11,500 websites selling prescription drugs that it has reviewed, only 4% follow pharmacy laws and standards established to protect the public health. In addition, 89% do not require a valid prescription, and half of the websites reviewed offer foreign or non-Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs, many of which may be dangerous counterfeits, to unsuspecting United States patients. Furthermore, health and regulatory agencies in the U.S. and abroad have reported cases of patients harmed by counterfeit, substandard, and adulterated medications distributed by rogue online drug sellers. Having a .pharmacy domain sets legitimate website operators apart from these rogue sites because NABP only approves those companies that adhere to pharmacy laws in the jurisdictions in which they are based and in which their patients and customers reside, so that consumers can easily find safe online pharmacies.
