Yes, Canadian Pharmacies they have a list of certified Canadian Pharmacies that are reputable on line. For example I live in the US and take Advair my Pharmacy here wants to charge me $300 a month not covered by Part D I have been getting thru Canada for 12 years for $78 for 3 months same manufacturer as Advair it comes from the UK the country depends on the exchange rate at the time.

I used to use CanadaDrugs until they discontinued this service. This company was also very reasonable and reliable.

I'll add for the benefit of other readers that all these companies require a prescription from one's physician in the US, and one should avoid purchasing from any company that doesn't require this, and then look at the labels of the product when it arrives to ascertain the manufacturer.

These companies generally take a few weeks for their products to arrive (although they keep you informed). Because my prescription is a liquid (eye drop), I make a point of avoiding ordering during the winter or mid summer to minimize any risk of freezing or high temperatures--something I learned during my years of working with a company that shipped biological extracts. If one's prescription is a solid, then this will be less of a concern.

Wal-Mart's has a list of Medications that are discounted. Search the medication. I have seen where coupons are offered. Check the manufacturers site. Ask your pharmacist.

I use a type of eye drop in one eye on an ongoing basis, and I've been obtaining it from MailOrderMeds.com This is based in Canada, and my prescription is shipped from the UK (and manufactured by a branch of the same company that makes it in the US). I've been buying this the same way for a few years and have been very happy with the service and prices. It cost less for three vials than the copay for one vial in the US. However, with Medicare the difference may be less. Because this is my only routine prescription, it costs less than the deductible would be if I bought it through my Medicare related prescription plan from an American pharmacy, but if you have several prescriptions this might not save you money because you would reach the deductible very soon. However, you might want to price your prescription with this company, although I doubt you'll be able to do better if you are already saving 90% of the price (I save about 60%).

In any case, others may find this information helpful.

I did all of that. One of my meds is $600 a month. My insurance brings it down to $60. but that is still too much. I am very low income.

there is a program called extra help through Medicare.
Here is a link. It’s based on income and helps with prescription drugs.
