Examples of Prohibited Prescription Drugs:

• All forms of insulin (including non-prescription forms)

• Prescription allergy medicine such as Zyrtec.

• Heart worm medicines (such as Sentinel, Revolution, Heartgard and Interceptor) for animals

• Flea control products (such as Program, Advantage and Top Spot) can be bought and sold without a prescription, and therefore they may be listed on eBay.

Members should refer to the FDA's tips for purchasing drugs online to be sure that they are not listing or bidding on prescription drugs or items.

Further, the Food and Drug Administration maintains the "Orange Book" online where members can search prescription drugs and over the counter medicines by brand name or by active ingredient. Think safety and check with the FDA first.

The Center for Veterinary Medicine maintains the "Green Book" online where members can search for information about animal drug products.

Please view the FDA's About Me Page for more information. Additional information may also be found in the FDA Orange Book and the FDA Green Book.

eBay urges its sellers and buyers to comply with all governmental laws and regulations. Since the sale of prescription drugs are prohibited by law, regulated or may cause harm to eBay or its members, sellers may not list them on eBay.
