Drones are now dropping prescription medications to Amazon customers in Texas within an hour of ordering, promising customers relief from standing in line, having public conversations about health and strenuous wait times.

For now, prescription medication by drone is only available in College Station, Texas, about 95 miles northwest of Houston. The deliveries won’t cost customers anything extra either, the e-commerce company announced in a blog post on Wednesday.

  1. Not an Amazon fan. They’ve ripped me off a few times. People sell broken junk on Amazon. Amazon also blatantly lies about their “free booksellers program”. It was not at all free, I never sold a book , and Amazon stole money from my bank account. Fraud in Other words.
    Liars liars and con artists.

  2. Crackheads hunting medical drones is the bladerunner future I signed up for

  3. Yo no way😂😂😂😂

  4. Drop me some lorazepam.. this is soon dumb!

  5. This is a bad idea imo. Those drones will be intercepted and more drugs on the street. Patient to collect or courier to deliver are only safe options.

  6. <<I LOVE your channel♥️💯 Making money is action, keeping money is behavior. Growing money is wisdom. I found this out a week ago after getting a $34,600 return on my $3,000 investment in 21 days💯.

  7. Think they would deliver my oxy & muscle relaxer?

  8. This would make life so much easier. I spend at least 3 hours a month or more waiting for meds. I wish Tricare was accepted.

  9. I think we might be allowing these companies too much power.
    This feels like it could be a slippery slope…

    I can admit that there are a lot of potential benefits to it, tho

  10. Bad idea man 😂 junkies are going to be robbing those things, shooting em out of the sky , using nets 😅😂

  11. This gonna be so abused

  12. Amazon is getting in the future b4 anybody!

  13. you don't have to worry about IT get stolen? Oh, you're not from India, yeah that makes sense.
