Identifying and Avoiding Counterfeit Cialis

Purchase Cialis only from licensed online pharmacies verified by reputable certification bodies like CIPA (Canadian International Pharmacy Association) or LegitScript. Check the pharmacy’s website for this verification.

Check Packaging and Pill Characteristics

Counterfeit pills often have inconsistencies. Examine the packaging for typos, blurry printing, or differences from genuine Cialis packaging. Compare the pill itself to images of authentic Cialis tablets found on the manufacturer’s website. Note the color, shape, size, and markings. Discrepancies indicate a potential fake.

Scrutinize the Seller’s Information

Legitimate pharmacies clearly display their business address and contact details. Avoid sellers who are vague or obscure this information. A lack of transparency is a significant red flag.

Beware of Unusually Low Prices

Substantially discounted prices compared to average market prices should raise suspicion. Counterfeiters often lure customers with incredibly low costs.

Report Suspicious Activity
