PharmacyChecker.Com Can Help You Find Less Expensive Prescription Medicines

Here is a link to a press release from PR News Wire on Jan 18, 2018 by  pharmacychecker.com. Below are excerpts:

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y.Jan. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Dozens of drugs that do not have generic alternatives have recently been removed from the formularies of two large pharmacy benefit managers, Express Scripts and Caremark. This leaves Americans who need these drugs having to pay hundreds or thousands of dollars out-of-pocket per month for those medications. However, researchers at PharmacyChecker.com have found that some of the dropped drugs can be purchased from licensed pharmacies outside the U.S. for a fraction of the U.S. price.

International online pharmacies offer financial relief for Americans

A single tablet of the type 2 diabetes drug Jardiance, for example, costs $17.33 in the U.S. but can be purchased from licensed pharmacies in Canada for as little as $3.33, an 81% savings.

An 800 mg capsule of the kidney disease drug Renagel is $8.88 in the U.S., but just $2.11 if ordered from Canada.

Even lower prices are available for some drugs when purchased from licensed pharmacies in other countries, such as the United KingdomAustraliaNew ZealandTurkey, and India.

“High drug costs are a major contributor to nonadherence among patients. Verified international online pharmacies often offer lower prices, making drugs more affordable,” says Kelly Ann Barnes, a licensed pharmacist in Massachusetts who oversees the PharmacyChecker Verification Program.
