Has the cost of meds got you down? Well here's a great place run by an independent American consumer research group that provides free ratings and price comparisons for more than 40 online pharmacies based mainly in the United States and Canada.
These folks rate the online pharmacies on a scale of 1 to 5. They show whether a pharmacy is licensed, requires a prescription, provides its address and phone number and offers personal privacy and payment security. They compare prices for over 1,000 drugs at these pharmacies and give you details on shipping fees and delivery times.
The prices for identical drugs vary widely offering you a chance to evaluate the pharmacies and often save significantly. Great place for saving a bunch of shekels.
