Prescripoin Drugs cost those without Insurance plans in the USA a fortune! Some states like Illinois, & Wisconson are making it legal for their residents to be able to get Prescription Drugs from Canada, at greatly reduced prices from pharmacies like pharmacies in canada. Ofcourse the USA FDA is opposed to this, saying that the Drugs may not be up to the high FDA quality standards.Health Canada oversees the safety of drugs, and is roughly the equivalent of the FDA. People visit Canada and buy over the counter medications every day. Prescription drugs are no different. Meaning, they're perfectly safe from everything I can find on the subject (as well as my sister's family, who lives in Toronto). If you want to order from Canada, then it's a buyer beware market. There are internet sites that will happily rip you off. So, please use a registered pharmacy for your medications like for example pharmacies in canada.

Please be careful Blogger. Other countries don't have the same standards as the US in ensuring the safety and efficacy of medications. If you do decide to use a pharmacies in canada, PLEASE do your homework. Make sure the pharmacies in canada is in Canada, like pharmacies in canada. Some sites say they will ship the medications from Canada when they are actually in other countries. If you can, make sure the medications are manufactured in the US or Canada. Canada also has good protocols in making sure medications are safe and effective. There are many counterfeit drugs in the world. I would hate to see you become injured because of a counterfeit drug. Like I said before, do some researching before you decide to send away for some medication.
