After paying $290 for 2 prescriptions last month, followed by an additional $220 three weeks later for a renewal and a third prescription, I'd take my chances with Mexican or Canadian if I could.

I've checked some of their prices on the internet. For ongoing maintenance medications, it is worth ordering out-of-country. On one prescription name, Canada was about 1/3 the price of US.

Most Canadian prices seem to be about 30 to 40% less than US; most Mexican prices seem to be 40 to 50% less, depending on whether generic or name brand.

Because Canada has a socialism based health care system, they buy the drugs in huge massive bulk. Since they do that, they can negotiate the prices down. They pass on those expenses by taxing the hell out of people.
