Antibiotics online

I am on a course of antibiotics which is due to come to an end. I would like some more as I am going on holiday but can't get an appointment in time.

I have found them for sale online - do you think this is completely dodgy?

Just ring your doctors and ask for the dr to ring you back he can then see if he thinks you need a repeat prescription and you can go and pick it up from the surgery.

other alternative is go to a walk in centre you will be seen there and then and nurses can do prescriptions

if the course is due to finish why do you need more? are you not better?

Completely dodgy and likely to be illegal too.
Antibiotics are given for a short course for a reason if you are not better then go back to the GP>

Why do you think you need more?
Any site that is selling antibiotics without a prescription is dodgy. You wouldnt be able to be sure that what you were buying was genuine.
