A majority of pharmacists don’t talk to patients about online pharmacies – especially those that sell counterfeit drugs – according to a recent survey.Forty-five percent of pharmacists and other healthcare providers who took a free online continuing pharmacy education course, “Internet Drug Sellers: What Providers Need to Know,” said they “never” or “almost never” discuss online drug sellers with their patients. Only 6% reported that they make a consistent effort to talk about the issue, and only 1% said they do so regularly.
