You can’t expect a domain like PrescriptionMedication.com to drop after more than two decades, but that’s exactly what happened.
Registered in 1997, the major keyword combo wasn’t renewed at Rebel.com and the domain dropped. It was picked up by DropCatch, the big name in dropcatching these days.
Prescription medication returns a massive 499 million results in Google, spanning anything under the sun:
- Lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril)
- Gabapentin (Neurontin)
- Amlodipine (Norvasc)
- Hydrocodone/acetaminophen (Vicodin, Norco)
- Amoxicillin (Amoxil)
- Omeprazole (Prilosec)
- Metformin (Glucophage)
- Losartan (Cozaar)
All these meds require a doctor’s prescription to be dispensed, and that’s why the matching domain, PrescriptionMedication.com, is so valuable.

As far back as in 2001, the domain was offered for sale by its registrant, Patrick Flynn:
Hi! The domain name you typed in is not currently being used for a website address. If you’re interested in some information about leasing this domain name for your website, please contact: Patrick Flynn
So why did PrescriptionMedication.com drop?
It appears to have been a DNS issue that affected the managing email account. Since that email wasn’t functioning, we can assume the registrant didn’t receive notifications of its upcoming renewal.
PrescriptionMedication.com is on auction and the current bid stands at just $415 dollars with about 3 hours left.
Update: Ended at $2,556 dollars.
What was the final price?
