Okay, that tracks. My big question was “is this independent or chains” and it’s sort of answered by them saying one location of a regional chain was doing it. I’d bet that regional chain they mention it’s just that location and the employees are running the scheme.
And it sounds like they’re selling to people seeking recreational drugs, specifically opiates. So test your pills like you would if you were buying them off the street.
Places like Cancun and Puerto Vallarta and Playa Del Carmen are pretty awful. I’d recommend avoiding them anyways.
- YellOh 3y agoI mean, people do still get on-brand Xanax / Percocet / whatever for non-recreational reasons. Painkillers still kill pain. But otherwise, hard agree. If you're going to do medical tourism, avoiding sketchy independent pharmacies aimed at tourists is probably a solid first step.
- dimmke 3y agoYeah but the article describes buying individual pills. That’s not a thing in real pharmacies. It really sounds like they’re just buying from drug dealers that have setup storefronts and I don’t think the overall conclusion of the article is justified by their findings.
- dimmke 3y agoOut of curiosity, I acquired a box of Mexican Xanax today. Now I just need to figure out how to test them. It was under the name Tafil and supposedly manufactured by Pfizer. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1119021696968556566/1119021786936393808/IMG_8243.jpg https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1119021696968556566/1...
