Bidrx.com – Power for prescription drug buyers

Bidrx.comAs with everything else on a free market, many companies compete with each other in producing prescription drugs. But consumers often have no knowledge of what they are buying for themselves because they rely on the doctor who made their prescription. That’s the way it needs to be.

However, laboratories can produce the same drug to treat the same ailments, with different names or prices. No patient is really aware of what generic drug they have been prescribed and mostly remember only the name of a certain brand. Maybe he goes to the neighborhood pharmacy and is told that they have ran out of that brand’s products, going home with empty hands instead of choosing the same generic drug under another manufacturer. And last but not least, he might take with him the most expensive brand for a drug which he could have gotten at a much lower price.

All these situations are the ones that Bidrx.com will help consumers to solve in the best way. The site offers the chance to post the prescribed medicine you need and the potential sellers (pharmacies or labs) to bid with their prices. You, to whom the whole service is aimed at, have the final decision to buy what is best for you. Providers will put their whole information at your disposal and in this way you will save when buying your prescription drugs.

You can do searches of drugs by brand or by generic name, widening the scope of your options in a way you couldn’t imagine. Besides, the page will show some alternatives in case your exact search has no products available at that moment. Defining the geographic area in which results will be shown can be of much help too. Prescribers can also use this tool to find the best prescriptions for their patients.

Just remember that you must take your prescription to the provider you finally choose, so this doesn’t work for the risky practice of self medication.
