I love natural remedies and bought several of their products on subscription to try out over the years. I didn’t receive positive results or notice any difference. The only exception is wine-down which is relaxing but gives me weird dreams so I stopped taking it. My biggest concern is they started charging me for products I didn’t order. For example - they sent me 2 $150+ orders within 3 weeks!! I contacted them right when I got the email an order was placed and said I didn’t authorize the charge. They said there is nothing they can do because it is already in motion - even though it hasn’t shipped yet. Then they told me if I wanted my money back I had to go to the post office and pay for shipping or refuse it at delivery. What a mess. There is also no way to delete your account completely. Such a disappointment! I would love to support a company like this but they are clearly using unethical and possibly even illegal practices based on these reviews I’m seeing and my own experience. If you try them I would suggest avoiding subscriptions.

Very deceptive company! I had subscribed to a few of their products and bought enough in my initial purchase to qualify for free shipping. In my next subscription, I had removed one of the products but still had a good amount (around $90). The subscription page in my account had everything itemized and said free shipping so figured I was OK. When the actual order came through, the email confirmation showed I was charged $8.99 for shipping. When I reached out and asked them why I was charged for shipping even though my subscription page said free shipping (I also had a screenshot and showed them), they simply apologized for the “confusion“ and offered to ADD things to my subscription for the future. I immediately canceled my subscription and expressed my frustration, but they did not care and did not correct their mistake. Never shopping here again.

Products purchased: Wine Down and Take the Edge Off. Pure marketing gimmick, does absolutely nothing for me. Waste of money, honestly. Won't repurchase.

Initially I loved the product, although in retrospect think it's just a placebo. Which is unfortunate as I ordered my bottles directly from their online store and cancelled the subscription when they said they couldn't fulfil it. I then received an email saying your subscription is being filled. I contacted them and said this has been cancelled please do not proceed to ship. Their response was basically oh yes I see that but too bad it's already being filled and the following day shipped a whole new order to me. So now I have double the product and double the expense being $175 nzd for the last order. I will not be using this company again as they have bad customer service, it is expensive and process is terrible slow shipping and I have never been told you can't cancel something before it's shipped ever! Especially considering they couldn't fill the subscription in the first place. As well as in retrospect could be selling ground up sawdust and it would have the same effect as well as have been taken to court regarding lead in their products now I have read more online.

I bought 3 products from Apothekary after havinng seen so many instagram ads by them. I was enticed. I was skeptical, because I often find natural products to not truly work as advertised, but Apothekary sold me. I bought the blue metabolism booster dropper. It tastes great. It really is a pretty blue colour. But beside’s that, I can’t say I’ve noticed any change at all with anything. I bought the Do Not Disturb sleep aid powder. OH MY GOD the taste is disgusting! Not just bad, but revolting! I’m not being a hater - It really does almost taste like vomit to me. I was SO disappointed because I was looking for an alternative to melatonin tablets that I rely on. Not only did Do Not Disturb taste horrible, but it also did nothing for me! Lastly, I purchased Stop Your Wine-ing. Another huge disappointment. The product doesn’t mix well, in hot or room temperature liquid. It had a LOT of grainy texture that stayed in my juice or water that did not go away despite using a handheld mixer. The sediment both sank and floated, so if I really wanted it out, I’d have to strain it. But it’s a lot of product that’s supposed to be IN my drink, so I didn’t. I was really looking forward to the “relaxing” feature of this product. I did not feel any difference. None whatsoever. And I was sober to make sure I would notice any change, if by chance the product did work. Which it didn’t. I’m so disappointed. These products aren’t cheap either!

I’l ordered this product Jan 23rd and was to be delivery the 29th. Received at first a tracking number, which now no longer exists. I cannot reach support other than a “ we’re so busy, we cannot answer your questions” I actually question if this company actually exists.

I purchased the Rosé Tinted Glasses and Wine Down since I typically enjoy red and rosé wines. Following the instructions, I initially mixed the recommended amount with 4 oz of mineral water but felt no relaxing effect as advertised. The next day, I doubled the serving—still nothing. On the third day, I tried taking it directly, yet there was no noticeable difference. After experimenting with different methods and serving sizes, I’ve given up. While effects may vary from person to person, for me, this feels like a gimmick marketed for Dry January. Save your money. It would be nice if refunds would be offered.

Terrible product. Tasteless, expensive, and total bunk. I can't believe Dr Casey Means got behind this.
