Canadian Drugs Are Baaack! And, they cost less than Medicare Part D. Click here for more information.
We'll even beat Wal Mart's four dollars a month for generics. And, when it comes to name brand drugs, Wal Mart can't even come close to our prices.
Canadian pharmacies expect to see an even bigger rebound in sales for Canadian drugs in the coming months, when many Americans will hit the so-called "doughnut hole" in the Medicare plan, a gap in price breaks when a patient's annual drug bill is between $2,250 and $6,100." That's $3850.00 paid by each individual for 2008.
And to make things worse, in 2007 the Medicare plan premiums and deductibles rose, which combined with a penalty for signing up late, will amount to a 15% increase in prices for elderly Americans.
It's going to be a no-brainer for Canada. "We've already done studies that show 80 per cent of the time Canadian drugs are cheaper than Medicare drugs. The outlook is rosey." Full article See comparison
Patient safety is our primary concern, however, a prescription drug that is not affordable is neither safe nor effective. The following interviews and researched articles show beyond a doubt how drug companies, in conjunction with the FDA, have set out to deceive physicians and patients on the issue of safety.
Europe has been reimporting or "parallel trading" prescription drugs since 1985 without any reported ill effects. As with our Canadian pharmacy, our confidence level with European and other pharmacies is extremely high.
What the FDA and drug companies don't want you to know is, many of the medications we consume in the U.S. have been researched, developed, and manufactured in other countires for quite some time. USA Today Oct. 19, 2004. The FDA is well aware of the safety of these medications since they are required to inspect these plants every two years.
More drug companies are now manufacturing for the U.S. market in other countries. The same facilities that manufacture for the U.S. also manufacture generics for the Indian, Australian, New Zealand, and European markets. These plants have been FDA inspected and approved. Pfizer currently has eighteen locations in India alone Pharmaceutical Company Directory Medi-Lexicon. Other manufacturers have also established facilities in India (Astra Zeneca, Merck, Novartis, Roche, Sanofi-Synthalabo) and more are beating a path to their door:
"India today has the largest number of US Food & Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drug manufacturing facilities outside the US. Drug Master Files (DMFs), which have to be approved by the FDA before a drug can enter the US market, filed by Indian companies total 126 - higher than Spain, Italy, China and Israel put together." Asia Times May 11, 2005.
"Wal-Mart Stores Inc is in talks with major Indian pharmaceutical companies to directly source generic drugs from India for global supply, the Economic Times reported, citing industry sources". Forbes May 1, 2007
"If pharmaceutical companies can manufacture prescription drugs all over the world and safely bring them into the U.S., then a similar system can be devised to ensure the same for consumers. Americans need access to lower-priced prescription drugs." (Nelda Barnett AARP Director).
Yet, the safety myth lives on, perpetuated by an industry and government agency supposedly with our best interests in mind. Could it be that their actual intent is to protect profits in the "crown jewel" of all prescription drug markets?
The bottom line for any U.S. citizen who wishes to buy cheaper drugs from other countries is: only buy from a licensed pharmacy. Licensed pharmacies are regulated by boards of pharmacy and will not jeopardize their livelyhoods by selling illegitimate products. All of our partner pharmacy's licenses are checked and approved by our managing pharmacists.
We offer the following guidelines when ordering your presription drugs from a Canadian or any pharmacy:
- Never order from a pharmacy that does not require a prescription.
- Canadian pharmacies must make their license numbers available to the Public. Ask for it and the toll free number to the College of Pharmacists to verify.
- Mail-order pharmacies should have pharmacists available during business hours for consultation.
- Whenever possible your prescription drugs should be shipped in the original, sealed, manufacturer's container.
- The pharmacy should have a representative for you to talk to not just an e-mail address.
- Request delivery insurance for your order.
Take responsibility and know who you are dealing with. To do otherwise, will only put your health at risk!
