Fight High Priced Medications in US.... Go to Canada... on line!

I just purchased some of my high priced medications in Canada from an online service.
I used North West Pharmacy.com

My account was simple to set up, and it was even easier to call their toll free number on a Sunday afternoon for help!

Three (3) tablets of this particular medication would cost me $60.00 using my US pharmacy and insurance. 
I ended up paying $64.00 for 24 tabs using the NorthWestPharmacy.com website.

Sign up, sign in, click or select your medication, pay by credit card, get your order number, write the order number on your Doctor's prescription, photocopy it as a .jpeg or .pdf and email the file it to customerservice@northwestpharmacy.com, or mail it to them, or fax it to them.

Since this is my first time ordering this medicine, it will take two days for the company to handle the order, and between 8 and 18 business days to receive the medicine, which usually comes from either a Canadian or European partner pharmacy.  The NorthWestPharmacy.com handles the US customs for you. 

So if you need your medications in a pinch, this isn't the way to go.  However, if you're like me and plan your life around your medicine, this is simple to do.  You can even program a reminder in the system to email  you when it is time to order refills based on how long your last turnaround time was.

You don't have to be a brain surgeon, nuclear engineer, rocket scientist, or Starbucks barista to figure this one out!  You can poke around for your meds on line for free. 

My primary care physician recommended this to me!  I love that guy!

Campy OUT!
