Is it safe in getting prescription drugs from Canada?
Saturday, 6. March 2010
Recently our company converted our health insurance into HSA+ high deductable, as such, we have to pay out of pocket for our prescription drugs. Shopping around in the web, with canadian drug sellers, I’ve found same brand drug running at 1/3 the price here in US and generic (not offered at our local pharmacy) is at 1/10 the price. I wonder whether anyone has tried Canadian drug companies, and can share their (+/-) experience. In particular, I am concerning about the safety but get motivated by the savings.
Added note: I used to pay $25/month for this prescription (30day supply) with the old issurance, Costco wants $115 and CVS wants $120; several canadian drug companies offer this at $120 for 90 days supply. And $30/ 90 days if I go with the generic version.
