Common Questions
Q: Do I have to be at home when my Periactin pills arrives?
A: In order to receive your order we require an adult signature
How do I pay for Periactin?
We accept payment via bank wire (telegraphic transfer), and all major credit cards.
What are the differences between Periactin brand-name drugs and Periactin generic drugs?
You probably know that pharmaceutical companies carry out extensive research and clinical testing to win approval from the Food and Drug Administration for new drugs. The new drug is then protected by patent for at least 10 years. Hence, a brand-name drug. When the patent expires another drug company can "copy the recipe" for the brand drug. This "copy" is called a generic drug. The FDA requires that generic Periactin have the same active chemical composition, be dispensed in the same dosage form such as a tablet or capsule and be taken in the same dosage as the brand-name drug.
Prescriptmedicine.com recommends the use of a generic drug only when it is "A" rated, the highest bioequivalent rating by the FDA.

Highlights
Different definition / meanings for the word "allergies":
Allergies almost always coincide with a scattered state of the nervous system and immune system in both adults and children. Homeopathic medicines will be selected that address the unfocused and over-reactive nature of the immune system and nervous system. The results are often quite successful. Most people with ADD (attention deficit disorder) also have allergies or sensitivities.
Different definition / meanings for the word "Anxiety":
Is a feeling of unease, apprehension or worry. It may be associated with physical symptoms such as rapid heart beat, feeling faint and trembling. It can be a normal reaction to stress or worry or it can sometimes be part of a bigger problem. See our leaflets on Depression and Anxiety and Phobias for further information.
Different definition / meanings for the word "Blood Pressure":
The force of blood exerted on the inside walls of blood vessels. Blood pressure is expressed as a ration (eg 120/80) The first number is the systolic pressure, or the pressure when the heart pushed blood out into the arteries. The second number is the diastolic pressure, or the pressure when the heart rests.
Buspirone
Buspirone (byoo-SPYE-rone) is used to treat certain anxiety disorders or to relieve the symptoms of anxiety. However, buspirone usually is not used for anxiety or tension caused by the stress of everyday life.
It is not known exactly how buspirone works to relieve the symptoms of anxiety. Buspirone is thought to work by decreasing the amount and actions of a chemical known as serotonin in certain parts of the brain.
Zoloft
Sertraline is used to treat depression, panic attacks, obsessive compulsive disorders (OCD), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This medication works by helping to restore the balance of certain natural chemicals in the brain.
Viagra
This drug is taken by mouth as needed between four hours and one-half hour before sexual activity (about one hour before is most effective). Take only as directed, usually once daily as needed. Sildenafil works along with sexual stimulation to help achieve an erection.
