Mail Order Prescriptions from Canada

Anyone have a suggestion for a site to order from? We live in the US.

Maybe you should ask someone in the lounge...you'll have better luck finding someone who uses that service.

Thanks, you are correct. I thought after I posted that the Lounge would be more appropriate for this question.

Avalon would know the answer to this, I think. She's worked as a pharmacist and knows her stuff.

JaneB, the moderators of Fodors probably moved it, so it may not be in the Canada Forum any longer.

If you're considering ordering drugs from a Canadian pharmacy, check to make sure it's a member of the Canadian International Pharmacy Association (CIPA). The CIPA seal assures you that the pharmacy is licensed, reputable and adheres to stringent safety standards.

aarp.org has approved ones and scam warnings.

Many option many more scammers easy to get ripped off harder to save.Most realize little savings after shipping costs. Usually way better to work directly with a Family Pharmacist and MD go to generics or get other help.You have 0 legal recourse on any problems you will have from risking this.

Personally have seen aspirin dyed with blue food color and shipped as "Viagara" from Canada poor guy paid $1/pill
for a blue aspirin very sad.

So caveat emptor!

I've used this one for years to save a boat load on asthma meds.
They're quick (well, as fast as the postal service can be between the US and Canada) and call you to confirm all the information before filling out your prescription. Efficient and polite!

We used http://www.healthwarehouse.com/ which is in Kentucky and found their prices to be very low on certain scripts. Check them out.

I've had good experiences with canadadrugs.com
A physician recommended the site.

I checked out healthwarehouse.com for my Advair, but their cost was 672.00 for the same amount, dosages, size, yada, yada, yada that canadadrugsonline.com was charging......


195.00


Yeah, hard to believe isn't it? I said I've saved a boat load over the years........

Get the free usa drug card online, and on the site you can check the discounted prices available at your local pharmacy. Might help you with certain prescriptions.

I use Universal Drugstore. Phone: 1-866-456-2456. I get a prescription from my doc and fax it (1-866-783-4223) to them. I usually order by talking to someone on the phone.

I give them my Visa number, and the medication usually comes within three weeks to a month.

When I first started taking Arimidex, it cost $283 per month in the States, the second year $350, the third year $420.

I was able to get it in Canada for $171 per month for all three years I took it. I also got excellent savings on Lipitor and Celebrex--usually about 50%.
