Hi

I am wanting to start Retin A. My dr wont prescribe it because i dont have bad acne. I am wanting to use this to help with anti aging.

I have looked at All day Chemist and United Pharmacies uk. Just a bit worried ordering as i dont have a credit card only a debit card and as a i live alone im worried i may get monies taken from my account etc. Have people ordered from both of these nd are they safe. I have Paypal but no one seems to use this. I have read alot of reviews on medsmex and people having fraud issues so really want to avoid that one. Are there any other places i could try. I live in the UK. many thanks

Oh quick question.... i am looking at using the cream for wrinkles etc around eyes and mouth and wondered if i should start with 0.25% or 0.5%

I order from ADC and I also have a Debit Card. I have had some incidences of fraudulent activity in the past but don't know whether that was due to ADC or other sites (I buy a fair bit on the internet). However, my bank has always reimbursed the funds. In addition, ADC also claims that their site is much safer now (don't know how true that is).

Is it possible for you to use a one time use debit card - I think this is what some people do.

I would start off with 0.05% - if you find it too strong just use it less often. Or why not order a couple of tubes of both (it's so cheap).

Hi Keliu

thank you so much for your help. I was thinking on odering a tube of 0.25 and 0.5 so that i can start off low and see how i go. Its jsut the worry of using a debit card and i heard that if i were to have fraud issues on that they wouldnt be disbursed. someone mentioned the United pharmacies.co.uk too. I have jsut been to my doctors to see again if i can get if on prescription and i even told them why i wanted it rather than saying it was for acne as before and she still wouldnt prescribe it. felt so disappointed Sad

thank you again for your help x

...and I see no one has posted here since 2011. Maybe I can revive it.

Do these mail order pharmacies require a Rx? I know in Mexico they are over the counter.

Recently saw my dermatologist and he froze and cut off several things (beauty marks, freckles) to send to Lab.
In the meantime I asked for a retina-a prescription, and he gave me one... that easy. I was stunned because no one else has ever been that obliging, as I don't have acne.

Unfortunately he wrote it AND another RX (a med for the irritation of something removed, that has trouble healing) on the same paper. Embarassed

I thought I'd try to do one of those "discount mail order pharmacies"for the retina-A, not knowing he'd join the Rx's. If these places don't require a Rx...than the 2 in 1 RX should not be a problem. Razz

I was unable to load medsmex and thought the site was gone, but it finally just loaded.

Any input would be appreciated! Thank you!

What seem to be the best online sources to buy Retin-A from these days, and why?
