AGREEMENT FOR SERVICES
A. DISCLOSURE AND REPRESENTATIONS BY CUSTOMER:

Online Pharmacies Canada and to Coastal Canada Pharmacy
(hereinafter collectively referred to as "OPC") that:
The prescription(s) that I submit to OPC for the
medications (referred to in this Agreement as "pharmaceuticals" or
"medications") described in the prescription were prescribed by a physician
("My Doctor") licensed to practice medicine in the country, state or other
applicable jurisdiction in which I reside or where I sought treatment and who I
personally consulted.
The prescription(s) were lawfully obtained by me from My Doctor.
I will continue to have my medical condition and my use of the
pharmaceuticals obtained through OPC monitored by My Doctor on a
regular basis as My Doctor may advise me.
I am engaging OPC for the sole purpose of obtaining
prescription medications at a lower price than in the country in which I
reside.
I am not seeking medical advice or medical treatment of any kind or
nature whatsoever from OPC nor am I relying upon any medical
information from OPC or from any of its employees, officers, agents or
any and all others acting through or for OPC.

officers agents and all others acting through or for it, nor anyone that is
acting on its behalf, is providing medical advice, treatment advice or

strictly according to the instructions provided by My Doctor.
The pharmaceuticals will only be used as directed and only by me.

place where I reside.

any way nor has it been filled prior to submission to OPC.

side effects from any pharmaceuticals.

Doctor including all testing to ensure that I have no medical problems which
would constitute a contradiction to me taking the pharmaceuticals.
OPC's employees and agents have relied on the information
and documentation that I have provided or will provide (including the Patient

and relevant information and documentation to OPC. I agree to promptly

information by electronic means.

the purpose of taking all steps and signing all documents on my behalf
necessary for shipping my prescribed pharmaceuticals to me as if I had shipped
