Overview
Drugstore.com hopes it has the right Rx for e-commerce success. The e-tailer sells name-brand and private-label health and beauty items as well as prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs through its Web site and by telephone. A partnership with GNC Corporation allows drugstore.com to offer the retailer's vitamins and wellness products online. It also sells high-end cosmetics and skin care items through its beauty.com unit. The company markets contact lenses through its Vision Direct subsidiary and customized nutritional supplement programs through its Custom Nutrition Services subsidiary. Founded in 1998, the company has yet to turn a profit on a consistent basis.
