NorthDrug Mart which includes its officers, directors, affiliates, representatives, agents, contractors and sub-contractors (collectively, "NorthDrug Mart") is an international prescription referral service committed to helping ensure that I, the undersigned patient ("I" or "Me"), am able to obtain medication, products and /or services ("Product") from licensed pharmacies. This Patient Authorization Agreement ("Agreement") shall govern all sales of Product facilitated by NorthDrug Mart between me and any of NorthDrug Mart's authorized pharmacies located in Canada, the United Kingdom, India, Mauritius, Turkey, Vanuatu, USA, and elsewhere (collectively, the "Pharmacy"). I acknowledge and agree as follows:

I understand that it is my responsibility to have my prescribing physician ("My Own Physician") conduct regular physical examinations, including any and all suggested testing to ensure that I have no medical problems which would constitute a contraindication to me taking the Product. I certify that I have had a physical examination by My Own Physician within the last two (2) months from the date hereof.

4. I agree that if I suffer any adverse effects while taking any prescription medication that I will immediately contact My Own Physician and that in the event that I come under the care of another physician, I will inform him or her of any and all medications that I have been prescribed. I further acknowledge and agree that NorthDrug Mart recommends regular physician examinations with My Own Physician whose care I am under and who initially prescribed my medications.

Any treatment that I receive from the Providers shall be deemed to be received by me in the jurisdiction in which the Providers are located.

I agree to a direct all questions to My Own Physician. I will consult My Own Physician before taking any new drug or changing my daily health regimen.
