What sense would that make. Why would the Federal Drug Administration approve any thing sold in another country. Kind of out of their jurisdiction wouldn't you think? They are the same drugs, same stuff in every country. Just different prices.
To me the risk comes in buying drugs from other countries that HAVE NOT been FDA approved in this country. Experimental drugs still in the testing loop in this country? Good or Bad? I don't know but if I were desperate (terminal)I would sure give it a try, FDA approved or not. What would I have to lose? Going to be tits up probably so lets give it a shot. Just one man's opinion.
The drug companies market many drugs in other countries that have not got regulatory approval here because the other countries standards are much lower. Good or Bad, still don't know.
Established meds that are just maintenance, (blood pressure, anti-biotics, etc) I would sure buy out of country for major savings.
As another said, We pay the high prices since we are percieved as being able. Well, lucky us, we all know better.
