American Made, Cheaper Abroad: Pataday
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.
