Any others?

We have no news or link to any bust in this case... but they closed and this was pretty much their closing announcement:

I belive I read that 1st stoppe pain was siezed, and aaapain
(something) happened do not know for sure perhaps some else may.

Also read, alot of PA. and Doctor, needed to call your family GP. like, Camelot, etc, I am sure there are more,

Perhaps some on the board may have some info, about he Pharmacys, and there critieras. This would also be so good to know so not to tie up the pharmacies, and also the patients.
Just thinking out loud.
Sincerely,ll

Anybody heard anything about Madison Pain Clinic?
I just heard from a friend they were shut down, and they seemed so strict and thorough, with sending EMT's to your house for physicals and regular drug testing.
I never went to them because they had Rules that seemed to difficult and strict.
Any info?

believe we have just had three more sites closed, http://www.medicinegallery.com, http://www.ship4sure.com, and http://www.thriftmeds.com ,it seems the ryan act is gonna make it impossible for us who need this meds on regular basis, I should probably better die because I will not be able to pay this outrageous costs here in usa and all for those parents who do not watch what their kids do on line

You are, his parents made sure of this.......

I believe Nationwide pills just went down, I ordered a consult,having used this service over a year now, thought it was strange that i didn't get a call yesterday. I checked today and their domain name is up for sale guess thats one more gone.

Sure about that? Domain expired, appears to have been renewed.

In addition to the standard OCS interface, they have a statement on the site about moving toward face to face. Never visited the site before myself, so I can't say if it's new.

Hopefully, more sites will adapt to the reality of this misguided, inevitable, "feel good" law which punishes only the sites that for the most part attempted to act responsibly during a very long "grey area" period.

So we'll have face to face plus a plethora of sites that fulfill all the lies and distortions the media and politicians are excellent at dispensing.

Learned a long time ago first hand, how both the media and politics are dirty businesses that have zero regard for little things like "facts".

The law is not in effect yet, they kind jumped the gun without giving patients a chance to taper. That is really not fair. It did not need to go down that fast unless there is something more to it that I am not aware of.

Doesn't it take 180 days after the bill is signed to go into effect? So that would give people 6 months to figure something out. At least that is what I am hoping.

We are trying to keep this thread for posts related to "Online pharmacy busts discussed at our site..."
If a site was not "busted" it should not be mentioned in this thread...

Well, I'm not sure if the following was ever mentioned. It wasn't that recent, and although the site was occasionally mentioned at this forum, I don't think that much attention was paid to it relative to other sites.

So, I apologize in advance if this has already been discussed.

There was a Louisville, Kentucky based company called Science of Better Living ("S B L" (,llc)), and its website was called dietprescriptions(dot)com. The website (an NROP) sold controlled, non-narcotic diet medications including phentermine (C-IV), Didrex (C-III), and Bontril PDM (C-III).

On April 9, 2009, The United States Attorney's Office, Western District of Kentucky, Department of Justice, issued the following press release: http://www.usdoj(dot)gov/usao/kyw/press_releases/PR/20090409-01(dot)html. According to the release, Dr. Senler was scheduled to be sentenced on July 8, 2009, although I can find no information on the Internet regarding that sentencing.


About S B L
Dietprescriptions(dot)com was different from other NROP's in a number of ways. It was the only NROP that I had ever seen that actually sold brand name Bontril PDM 35 mg. (Many sold the 105 mg. extended release formulation as a brand name product, while others sold phendimetrazine tartrate 35 mg., but only generically.) Also, the medication bottles that were used made no reference to the name of any prescribing doctor. No pharmacy name was shown on any bottle either, except for www.dietprescriptions(dot)com. However, patient's name and dosage were shown, and the words, "Federal law prohibits dispensing without prescription" were on the bottles. Also, the drug manufacturer's name, city, and state were provided on the bottles. Basically, the medication bottles were sort of a cross between a prescription medication bottle one would normally receive from a pharmacy, and a stock bottle that a pharmacy would receive from a wholesaler. And there was never any attempt to conceal the real location of the site -- the shipments' return addresses were S B L, Louisville, Kentucky.

From reports that I have read on the Internet, it did not appear that, initially, the state of Kentucky had any knowledge of Dr. Senler's Internet business. It seems that they were notified by federal officials regarding it in 2007. In April 2007, Dr. Senler's lawyer at the time, T. Wesley Faulkner, issued a statement that "Internet prescribing is not illegal," and that "there's been no disciplinary action against my client." Dr Senler's license to practice medicine was revoked by The Kentucky Board of Medical Licensure in 2008 (although he had voluntarily surrendered it prior to that). Aside from his Internet company, S B L, which operated his website, Dr. Senler also operated a diet clinic in Louisville called Weight Loss Plus (the formal name for which was Kentucky Body Works). There are also numerous news and other reports which can be found if you search for Tufan Senler. But I've probably told you much more than you wanted to know already.
