Importing prescription drugs is legal.

More and more patients are trying to save money by purchasing prescription drugs from Canada. They're hearing from friends and news reports that they can save up to 70% on the cost of prescription drugs by getting them from Canada.

In fact, nearly a million packages of prescription drugs are sent to the U.S. from Canadian pharmacies each year.

Now that importing drugs is becoming such big business, lots of Internet pharmacies in Canada are sprouting up to serve U.S. residents.
