July Canadian Pharmacy News

Americans pay the highest prices for prescription drugs of all nations in the world. Millions of Americans either have inadequate prescription health benefits, or worse - no health insurance. For more than two decades, American consumers have been crossing the borders to Canada in search of low cost prescription drugs. Through licensed Canadian pharmacies, such as Medisave.ca, American consumers have been able to obtain discounted prices on medications from their neighboring country.

With an aging population and an ever increasing cost for prescription medications, individuals, corporations, and politicians are looking to Canadian pharmacies for lower cost prescription medications. The increased growth and popularity of internet usage combined with the promotion of safe and affordable medications over the internet, has made it easier than ever for individuals to order prescriptions from Canada without having to leave their homes.

Since drug companies have refused to supply Canadian Pharmacies that sell to Americans, organizations such as ours, Medisave.ca, have resorted to filling orders through licensed pharmacies internationally.

Medisave.ca takes great care in ensuring that we are providing medication of the highest quality to our patients and we ensure the operations we deal with internationally meet these criteria as well.

Critics say that drugs sold in Canada are safe as those sold in the U.S. The same drugs are considerably cheaper than they are in the U.S. Those critics accuse drug companies of spreading fear about counterfeit drugs to keep Americans paying high prices at home.

Medisave.ca is certified by CIPA, The Canadian International Pharmacy Association, which represents and enforces the ethical and professional practice of International Pharmacy, and ensures that the highest standards of practice are carried out by its members. Pharmacy Checker is another certification for Medisave.ca. Pharmacy Checker is an organization that evaluates, and reports credentials, prices, and customer feedback regarding pharmacies that operate online and through mail-order and fax.

In addition to the above certifications, you can take comfort in knowing the following:

* Our pharmacy is provincially licensed and this information is available for our customers to see on our home page
* You can find our physical address in Canada on our home and contact us pages to assure you that we are not operating a fraudulent business. You can also contact our toll-free numbers to verify all of our information before placing your orders
* We will not fill prescription orders unless a prescription from a licensed physician is provided, further showing our commitment to your safety (it would be unethical to deliver prescription medications without a prescription from a licensed physician)
* We carefully ask for your medical history information including allergies, to ensure no conflicts when sending out your medications
* Licensed pharmacists review all patient medical data, who then refer to Canadian licensed doctors for a second opinion
* We carry only manufacturer's sealed bottles on our pharmacy shelves
* We have implemented new shipping standards from Canada and Internationally ensuring safer delivery

All our international pharmacies have been visited and we can ensure you that they meet our standards of care and are all licensed pharmacies.
