Pataday in its American packaging
A weekly series identifying prescription drugs manufactured in America and their prices.
Pataday (olopatadine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) is a solution used for the treatment of itchy or watering eyes caused by allergies. Pataday is manufactured in the U.S., but that doesn’t mean that’s where it’s cheapest for Americans. In fact, you can save 79% by ordering it from a verified foreign online pharmacy: one 2.5 ml vial of Pataday costs $161 at a Walgreens in New York City, but only $34 from a PharmacyChecker.com-approved pharmacy.

A weekly series identifying prescription drugs manufactured in America and their prices.
Janumet (Sitagliptin Metformin HCL) is a popular prescription drug that combines two different diabetes medications, Januvia (sitagliptin) and metformin. Janumet is only for individuals with type II diabetes. It is manufactured by Patheon in the U.S., and is marketed by Merck. Despite being made in the U.S., the price for Janumet is much lower for Americans who choose to order it from a verified international online pharmacy rather than a U.S. pharmacy. From the former, 180 pills of Janumet 50/500 mg costs $172. From the latter, the same quantity costs a staggering $1,050. That’s a 83% savings, or $3,512 over the course of one year.

A weekly series identifying prescription drugs manufactured in America and their prices.
Strattera (Atomoxetine HCl) is a popular attention deficit hyperactivity disorder medication for use by children and adults. Strattera, an Eli Lilly product, is manufactured right here in the U.S.A., but is far more expensive in American pharmacies than elsewhere. In fact, the price difference is shocking – 90 capsules (25 mg) will run you $828 at a Rite-Aid in New York City; from a verified international pharmacy it only costs $310.50. That’s a 63% savings, or just under $2,100 over the course of a year.
