We applaud RxRights.org for its critical advocacy efforts on behalf of Americans who are struggling to afford prescription medication, including recent actions to defend the truth about safe international online pharmacies and savings. One new blog post features three video testimonials from Americans who import their medication, and another explains the facts about international online pharmacies. Check out Gary’s story:
First, Gary and the other Americans who offered testimonials should be commended for having the courage to speak up about ordering medication from international online pharmacies and discussing their drug affordability problems.
Gary orders his diabetes medication from Canada so he doesn’t have to forgo other needed household goods. He has been buying medication from Canada for many years and has “never had the first bit of problems.” But the drug companies – and even the FDA – will lead you to believe that this is dangerous! So why is Gary so comfortable using international online pharmacies?
Well, the other blog post gives us the answer: The only real difference between medications sent by mail from a licensed international pharmacy and what you can find in a neighborhood pharmacy is the cost. In fact, you can save between 50 and 80 percent by ordering online internationally and receive the same exact medicine!

Dear sirs…for several years, I have been using the Emsam Patch (currently manufactured by Wey Inc). This is the only medication that has been effective for relieving my anxiety/depression problems. This med does not go off-patent until 2018. It is extremely expensive ($1800 for a 90 day supply).
I am looking for a reputable international pharmacy where I can buy this medication at a more reasonable price.
Thank you
Hi James,
You can view prices for Emsam Patch here: http://www.pharmacychecker.com/online-pharmacy-emsam+patch-prices-cost/63949/
Just choose if you’re looking for 6 mg or 9 mg. Even though the pharmacies only list 30 as the quantity, you may be able to find a lower price by ordering 90 patches. Your best bet is to call a few individual pharmacies listed on that page and ask how much it would cost for a 90 day supply.
