NO, they are illegal. You need to see your doctor to get an rx for valium.
I believe there is an article on the DEA's website explaining it. But it is not legal to obtain RX meds by online pharmacies.

I copied this from the DEA website...

Federal law prohibits buying controlled substances such as narcotic pain relievers (e.g., OxyContin®, Vicodin ®), sedatives (e.g., Valium®, Xanax®, Ambien®), stimulants (e.g., phentermine, phendimetrazine, Adderall®, Ritalin®) and anabolic steroids (e.g., Winstrol®, Equipoise®) without a valid prescription from your doctor. This means there must be a real doctor-patient relationship, which by most state laws requires a physical examination. Prescriptions written by "cyber doctors" relying on online questionnaires are not legitimate under the law.

Buying controlled substances online without a valid prescription may be punishable by imprisonment under Federal law. Often drugs ordered from rogue websites come from foreign countries. It is a felony to import drugs into the United States and ship to a non-DEA registrant.

Buying drugs online may not be only illegal, but dangerous. The American Medical Association and state boards of medicine and pharmacy have all condemned the practice of cyber doctors issuing online prescriptions as unacceptable medical care. Drugs delivered by rogue websites may be the wrong drugs, adulterated or expired, the wrong dosage strength, or have no dosage directions or warnings.

DEA is targeting rogue online pharmacies for prosecution and shutting down these illegal websites. See the results of one such investigation, Operation Cyber Chase, at www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/pressrel/pr042005.html.

a discussion with my doctor last week indicates that the DEA is cracking down very heavy on doctors issues scripts for pain meds and for valium and similar meds.  DO NOT buy from these outfits.  A friend was buying ativan from one, and one day got a letter from the DEA saying that they had her package and she was welcome to pick it up from them.  who knows what would happen had she picked it up.

IT IS NOT WORTH THE RISK.  Right not the biggest challenge the DEA is facing is not heroin or other meds but prescription drugs showing up on the street, and they are cracking down very heavily.  My doctor gave me, for the first time in over 10 years of seeing him, a very stern lecture on what is going on with the DEA and their invesitigations.
