eDrugSearch.com Reveals Price Impact of Drug Importation by American Pharmacies

Seven out of 10 brand name drugs are imported, enabling US pharmacies to charge a high markup to consumers.

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, USA – October 10, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

eDrugSearch.com, the website that saves American consumers up to 97% on much-needed prescription medications by importing them from licensed Canadian pharmacies, today revealed the extent to which American pharmacies are over-charging for drugs that they themselves import from abroad. Industry research shows that 70% of major name brand drugs are imported, with American pharmacies adding large markups in the process.

“The numbers are actually quite astonishing,” said Cary Byrd, CEO of eDrugSearch.com. “American consumers are getting hit hard by high prices on drugs that come from overseas—when they fill their prescriptions at their friendly neighborhood pharmacy. They may act friendly, but they’re taking people for a serious ride with these importation practices.”

eDrugSearch cites industry pricing data to illustrate how consumers are getting overcharged for imported drugs. For example, Abilify, a popular medication for pediatric behavioral issues, is made in Japan and sells for $4.65 per tablet in Canada. It costs $34.51 per pill in the USA. Flovent, the asthma drug, which is made in the UK, costs $781 in the US but $173 in Canada. Nexxium is made in Sweden. Viagra is made in Ireland, and so forth.
