what happened to PowerMedica?

**Weakass** · 08-08-2005, 03:25 AM

Anyone know what happened to PowerMedica? Last time I called they said they were being bought out by a different company? I never really liked them, but I did have 2 refills left on my prescription.

They have been shut down for some time now. I would say at least a month. Not sure what happened but no website and no one is answering the phone.

I just called the number yesterday and they answered under a different name. I asked for the person I had previously delt with and was transferred to a "manager". He said the new company was opening and would be able to fill my RX on 8/22.

If you have 2 refills available cant you just take your medication to a pharmacy and have them refill it?? on my bottle it says i have 5 refills left.

I moved on as I have no way of knowing they will be around. My understanding is they were shut down because they were not using FDA approved suppliers. Makes you wonder if they are going to cut corners again when they open up under a different name.

They were first raided back in Feb 05' and I thought they were shut
down then, but they continued to operate I guess and now have been
busted... Here's the old link from the Feb 05' raid that was in the news...

Nice post it seems that some people get greedy and don't care who they might hurt

I just read an artical, Powermedica signed a lease for just over 10,000 sqft of office space on July-1-2005. They must be in business in some way. Who knows?

I spoke with one of their former sales reps just this week. He said they are out of business and will not open. He said the owner was in legal trouble which has nothing to do with selling steroids or anthing like that. Of course this guy now works for a different company so take it with a grain of salt.
