Our Structure
The Alliance for Safe Online Pharmacies (ASOP) is an informal alliance of stakeholders who want to protect patient safety by preventing patient access to and use of illegitimate online pharmacies and ensuring patient access to safe and legitimate online pharmacies. ASOP is led by a Steering Group which has developed the Alliance’s Charter, policy objectives and initial action items. Observers are those organizations that support the mission of the ASOP, participate in meetings, offer information and support the alliance's mission, but are not voting members of the decision making process.
All Members have an equal voice in the Alliance and the opportunity to advise and provide input into the Steering Group, although no single Member has a veto.
ASOP Member organizations are not required to pay dues to participate in the Alliance, though some Members may choose to submit voluntary, project-based contributions towards ASOP’s efforts.
ASOP is administered by B&D Consulting.
