It's just a matter of finding the right clinic, one that is regulated by the appropriate medical bodies governing the sale of prescription medication.
Patients order treatments online for a number of reasons. There are a lot of conditions they may feel uncomfortable talking about with their local doctor. These include but are not limited to STIs, erectile dysfunction, cystitis and premature ejaculation. Buying contraception online has become very popular among female patients too.
No doctor's appointment needed
Avoiding a face-to-face consultation with the doctor is a convenient and hassle free option for a lot of patients. For those who live busy lifestyles, it can be very handy getting medication delivered discreetly to their door.
To obtain medication online, patients can rely on 121doc, a reputable healthcare provider that has been offering medical advice and dispensing prescription treatments to patients since 2004.
Quick and easy to complete free online consultation
Patients over the age 18 will be able to start a free online consultation with 121doc after selecting their treatment. This short questionnaire will only take about five minutes to complete. In the consultation, patients are required to answer some basic medical questions to assess their suitability to take the medication. If a doctor approves the answers, a prescription will be issued.
Free next day delivery with all orders
Patients based in Scotland qualify for free next day delivery. One of the main reasons patients choose to obtain medication online is to save time and start treating their condition immediately. That's why 121doc uses Royal Mail's Special Delivery Service to make sure they can deliver medication within 24 hours.
Will the treatment be mentioned on the delivery package?
121doc understands that the majority of patients would prefer to receive their medication in a discreet manner, which is why they will never mention the name of the treatment on the packaging. Only their name and address will be mentioned on the secure tamperproof delivery box.
What makes 121doc a trustworthy clinic?
121doc complies with all the necessary UK Laws governing the sale of medication. Their team of doctors are registered in the UK and their pharmacy is accredited by the General Pharmaceutical Council. All the medication they provide has been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). Moreover, they have an excellent rating from Trustpilot, with satisfied reviews from a high number of patients.
Can patients order over the phone?

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
