Many normal pharmacies also have mail-order options.Which are often very annoying to use. I have tried many times to get my pharmacy to deliver by mail. It typically works for a few months, then they stop bothering, or fail to request a refill until I call them, or mumble something about the drug not being legal to ship even though it was successfully delivered earlier by this pharmacy and by other mail-order pharmacies I've tried.
There always seems to be some reason why it's necessary for me to drive down to the pharmacy, stand in line with a bunch of other customers during a pandemic, and grope around with various pens, styluses, and touchscreens that were previously handled by someone with who-knows-what infectious condition. Funny how that works. This business is well past ripe for disruption.
It's like everyone read the press releases and just decided it sounds correct.
Do you have any stake or interest in the pharmacy trade? It's like you're making the most negative possible assumption at every step of your argument, so turnabout seems to be fair play.
