eDrugstore.com: what customers say

Reviewers most often highlight patient, knowledgeable and polite customer service, along with a quick, efficient ordering process. Fast shipping, discreet packaging and fair pricing also come up frequently, and several long-time customers mention reordering for years. Negative reviews are uncommon; the main recurring complaint is that some deliveries took longer than expected, and a few reviewers describe order problems that support then resolved.

CVS Pharmacy: what customers say

This Trustpilot profile covers CVS as a whole, including in-store services. On the pharmacy side, reviewers most often describe calls and messages going unanswered, prescriptions out of stock or handled incorrectly (including wrong medications), and slow follow-through on things like prior authorizations. Long waits and a hard-to-use app also come up. Positive reviews typically credit individual staff members for being warm and attentive.
