A lOT of drug companies will NOT supply certain countries with their drugs in order TO KEEP USA prices HIGH. I know this for a fact. Physer (sp!) refused to sell Lipitor to Canada to keep price high in US. I was using an email Canada pharmacy to get my Lipitor. They called me and asked if I minded if my Lipitor came from NEW ZEALAND???? I said heck NO as long as it is cheap and the correct med. I finally told my DR I would NOT take ANY drug from that company and she better find something else. SHe did! And guess what? for the first time in YEARS my cholesterol is below 190..... I think we all need to start asking questions to our DR.'s. Alot of theses prescriptions are the result of SALEWMEN leaving those FREE samples in their offices.....
