many of the medications sold by Canadian and other foreign pharmacies get the SAME meds from the SAME manufacturers and most of them are made by the foreign manufacturers!!!

My wife's cancer medicine here costs $300 for 90 days with insurance. Over $600 when it hits the donut hole. Purchased from a foreign pharmacy shipped to the front door via Switzerland....same meds....in exactly the same packaging...manufactured in an approved facility in India.....$119 for 90 day supply....cash out of pocket with no insurance.

The thread is appropriately named.....pharmaceutical rip off, condoned by past administrations and supported by the current administration, gotta keep the specialist interest and lobbyists donations coming in....screw we the people in the process..BUSINESS AS USUAL in Washington.
