Canadian Pharmacy Prices
So what is that makes the Canadian pharmacies so attractive to
customers in the US? The answer is quite simple and just boils down to
one word: pricing. Pharmacies based in Canada claim to offer prices
which can more than offset the option of purchasing drugs from a vendor
based in US. These pharmacies sell virtually all drugs sold by vendors
back in the US and can be shipped to any destination in America. The
situation is such that American HMOs are encouraging US citizens to get
the prescriptions medications from Canada.
This
is the main reason why Canadian pharmacies have managed to attract many
US customers and the customer list continues to grow. There have been
claims of filling up to 3000 prescriptions a day. Medications imported
from Canada could cost up to 60-80 per cent less than those purchased
from within the US. Canadian pharmacies also sell drugs to patients
without prescriptions in these cases, if the patient is connected to an
online doctor. Prescriptions are then given either online or over the
phone and the drugs are shipped to your location overnight using the
courier service.
Some pharmacies also provide an option of purchasing cheap drugs from
countries in Asia and Europe, or whichever country offers the lowest
possible price, and can have it shipped to you at no extra charge. In
any case, the prices will still be far cheaper than the ones offered by
US pharmacies. The entire US pharmaceutical industry is up in arms
against their Canadian counterparts and wants to control this trade in
order to survive with healthy profit margins.
