We'd like to share some news XLPharmacy Canada just read today...we hope you find some hope in it's words...
The Senate voted overwhelmingly yesterday to make it easier for Americans to import cheaper prescription medications from Canada, a strong reproach to the Bush administration's recent crackdown on drugs ordered by mail for personal use.
The Senate approved by a 68-32 vote, the measure that would prohibit Customs and Border Patrol agents from seizing prescription drugs imported by individuals from Canadian pharmacies by mail or carried over the border.
Most seniors living on fixed incomes find it cheaper to purchase mail-order medications for their chronic conditions such as diabetes, or high blood pressure. And medications sold by licensed Canadian pharmacies are the same as those sold in the United States and many come from the same factories like Novartis, Cipla Abbot, Aventis, Bayer, Dr. Reddy's, Merck, Lilly, GlaxoSmithKline and Ganbaxy.
The only difference is the price. Canadians typically pay a fraction of what Americans in the United States do for their medications. Why? Because they have a cap on their drug prices, that's why. We hope that the Senate's vote will do something to drive the prices down for Americans at their own Pharmacies, but until then...Canada is a viable and reliable source for purchasing their medications at often 50-80% less then American Pharmacies.
We are glad to see that Congress has finally seen the light and that Customs should be worrying about protecting the nation against terrorism — not "taking Uncle Joes blood pressure medicine away".
The Senate version of the bill would keepCustoms from interfering in the personal importation of prescription drugs from Canada. The House proposal would keep Customs from interfering with the individual purchases of such medications from anywhere they want in the world. And of course all this has to be worked out before it can be presented to the President.
Hope this latest news gives some of us hope that there are still legit choices we can make without Customs interference.
