My son makes YouTube videos for a living and is sponsored by a small array of advertisers. Recently he was sponsored by a company, Jase Medical, that allows one to visit an online doctor and after answering a few simple questions, you are prescribed 5 emergency antibiotics. The antibiotics treat pneumonia, bladder infections, bio-terror, Montezuma's revenge, and wound infections. I thought this was an incredible premise/service and wanted to share with you the ability to have a potentially life-saving supply on hand in case the SHTF.
I filled in the short online questionnaire and received by antibiotics in the mail yesterday. All five prescriptions were around $250. Compared to 5 doctor's office visits and filling the prescriptions, I consider this an excellent value. I hope you find this vanity post of value. If not, mods, please remove.
Thank you, Quilla

Just saying.

We have the vet version, but, the India version is made for human consumption....and, prices out the same/better.
How do we really know what we get is safe, real, and who exactly is behind this site?
I have very little trust left after what I witness anymore.
Same as the fish antibiotics you get from the pet store for probably $50.
1) Do NOT keep them in a freezer. Very cold and very hot is what destroys antibiotics. Otherwise they will likely last 10-15 or so years until get too weak to work.
2) Can purchase at most any pharmacy for about $50. For the best prices, go to www.goodrx.com
3) Most primary care docs will write for them....if you explain your reason and don’t come in for other complaints (takes a lot of time to write and document some problem). Tell them that you are going remote (1 month expedition on a remote boat or wilderness area with no medical in 100’s of miles).
Son is a retired firefighter/EMT and extremely health conscious. I suspect he researched the company extensively prior to exposing his family and 69K subscribers to an unsafe product.
My brother-in-law who is a nuclear chemist always gets the cow antibiotics at the feed store. They are huge but you cut them to eight smaller size to get to be able to swallow. Might be a good idea to put some of these in your freezer just for emergency use.
I agree that antibiotics are going to be severely in short supply, but some education as to when, how much, when not to, etc. is needed as well. I would highly suggest anyone getting their hands on antibiotics also ensure they have a doctor, nurse, or pharmacist for asking questions before using them.

THAT would be doctors you refer to.
Not for long. FDA is outlawing this practice. I forgot the date (next year I think), you (and even farms) will need to go through a veterinarian.
Yes by all means get your medical advice from someone who makes their living putting out YouTube videos.
Thanks for posting.
Yes. All too many doctors are guilty of this. But it is often the patient who pressures them.
Patient - "I'm sick".
Doctor - "You have a common cold".
Patient - "I need an anti-biotic".
Good Doctor - "No you don't. You have a viral infection in which case an anti-biotic will not help and could actually be harmful"
Bad Doctor - "Sure. Here is an RX but use a prescribed
Bad Patient - I took them for one day and felt better and stopped but will save for later the next time I get the sniffles"
He’s a retired firefighter/EMT.
You’re quite welcome.
I had a neighbor who was that kind of person, the patient who wanted antibiotics for a cold, would nag the doctor for a prescription. There was no getting through to her how bad an idea that was, to take antibiotics without needing them. Lord, that woman was a thorn in my side. Her kids were brats, too.
Thank you!
I just wouldn’t know what to ask for. Size doesn’t matter (to me!) so I can cut them into whatever sizes I can swallow. I’ve heard about people getting meds at the feed stores, both here and out West, but like I said, I have no clue as to med name or brand name.

I got part of my initial stash of horse paste Ivermectin at a TSC in a rural area. Almost 2 years ago now. It was $4 or $5 a tube, and no one thought a thing about it. Now, it’s ~3X that, and they have the stupid warning signs, or did the last I looked.
I agree, and I’d store in the refrigerator.
