Canadian Heart And Stroke Association Prescription Drugs in Canada: What Americans Need to Know We have recently experienced an unexpected crisis of the family when my American mother-in-law was taken to hospital after a severe heart attack. The emergency room doctor told her husband that if she had arrived a few minutes later she was dead. She spent a week in hospital and, to our great relief, is now recovering at home. It feels better every day, and claims that hurts the most is his bag now. She is on several prescription medications and without additional services, pay for all of his own pocket. As a Canadian with friends and family living in the States, I was shocked to discover how much less we pay for prescription drugs in Canada and with our American neighbors. One of the drugs my mother-in-law must now take each day, a platelet aggregation inhibitor used to prevent and treat blood clots, heart attack, stroke, and coronary syndromes, the costs of its $ 170 U.S. 30 75mg tablets, or $ 5.67 a pill. When I watched the same drug to a pharmacy to mail order in Canada , the brand of the same drugs was U.S. $ 63 for 28 tablets of 75mg, or $ 2.25 per pill! If it passes the generic version (with the same exact formulation and efficiency), it could buy 180 75mg pills for only $ 54, or 30 cents a pill only! By my calculations, it is a saving of almost 95%! The terrain and recognition in the voice of my mother-in-law when I called to tell her about the research I had done on our cheap drugs from Canada has been overwhelming. I followed this with a call to my daughter in Ohio to ask how much she paid for her birth control . It was a little surprised at first, but when I made a couple of Canadian online pharmacies to compare prices, it was too excited to get my call. Americans buy prescription drugs online in Canada have nothing to lose so they order from a reputable, licensed Canadian pharmacy certified by the Canadian International Pharmacy Association (CIPA) and the Program PharmacyChecker certification. They have much to be won! Posted on March 10, 2010.
