Christianmom Posted August 6, 2012 Report Posted August 6, 2012 For those who might not have drug coverage, just wanted to mention that there is a good drug store in Canada that is much less expensive than the U.S. For example, 50 days of 100 mg. generic minocycline is $29. It is completely safe, legal, and regulated the same as the U.S. (my doctor is the one who told me about them). The only problem is that you have to wait two or three weeks to get your prescription, though sometimes they can get it to you much faster depending on where they have to go to get the drug. www.northdrugstore.com There are other good pharmacies in Canada. This is just one. All have tremendous savings over the U.S. prices.
rowingmom Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 Thanks. I will have to check out the prices on that site. We use CanadaDrugs.com
SSS Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 Last year, when we didn't have prescription coverage (because we had Kaiser) I found Costco pharmacy had the best local prices by far... This year, we switched insurance as of January 1st, and kid you not, hit our $2,400 deductible by Febuary 1st!
momcap Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Thanks. I will have to check out the prices on that site. We use CanadaDrugs.com Were you able to get prices? I checked the site, but no matter what I picked it says "not available in your area". I'm thinking they can only ship outside of Canada. ???
tpotter Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 I would also check out Costco for meds. My dog takes zonisimide (for seizures), and in the regular pharamacies, it's over $100, but at Costco, it's only about $11. The non-member price is only slightly higher!
