[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 988523, member: 4362"] I don't know what drug you are on but there is a big difference in the price between the USA and Canada on some of these drugs. There was a large anti-trust suit brought against one of our major pharmaceutical companies in the early 80's over one of the heart pills - I think it was Plavix. I think the USA was charging $6/pill and in Canada it was $1/pill. American and French companies had some sort of agreement where they one would manufacture and the other would market it. They got together and paid the other company not to market them in the USA. They got caught. Went to federal court. Judge fined the doctor who worked out the trade $50,000 and made him write a 200 word essay on what he had learned. Company went back to making them and selling them for $1 in Canada and they are still $6 here. For what its worth, my doctor suggests that we purchase our medicine from Canada because its the same thing only cheaper. [/QUOTE]
