Katie,

I, have a very different Mind set, having Myasthania Gravis. We have
to take a drug called Mestinon. What I have to pay for a Hundred tablets
($100.00) can be purchased overseas for ($8.00

When the Gov. held hearing and decided US drug manufactures were over
charging and put a ceiling on the profiteering, the Drug companies
licensed companies outside the US to manufacture the drug. It is no
longer manufacture in this country.

We pay &100 and my web friend in Spain pays $8. Made by the same
company.

I know this isn't the Flu Vaccine and I'm sorry to be venting but it is
kind of related

Sorry to hear it! A very good friend is in the same boat. His meds
cost $350 US and a little more than 1/2 that from Canada. They're made
by the same US company overseas... have been for years.
