Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2601. Nothing logged either way.

quebec is different

coming back to this insulating against cold is the same kit as insulating against heat. the pack is a buffer in either direction

for the archive coming back after 12 months, has any province changed its position

VI

has anyone compared a canadian pharmacy price to an american one properly

VI

unrelated but is provincial coverage as much of a patchwork as it looks from outside

ok so an alberta member and a nova scotia member compared notes and neither of them could believe the other one

the difference between a diabetes diagnosis and a weight indication was the whole story in every province i read about, ymmv

👍21👀1

is it worth just waiting until spring to order

LO

transit was 15 days for me with a week of nothing in the middle at a customs facility

FT

canadian pharmacy pricing was well below the american equivalent in every comparison members have made in here

TT

the border question comes up a lot and nobody here will tell you what to declare. that gets stopped quickly

TT

a member in the territories reported everything arriving eventually and nothing arriving quickly, for what its worth

the last leg across the prairies in february is the risk. the flight is heated and the truck is not

FT

i compared a canadian pharmacy quote against an american one on the same dose and the american one was more than double

canadian pharmacies stocked it reliably in the periods members reported on, better than the uk did at the same time

FT

my monthly cost with partial insurance came to about 120 canadian dollars, which is not a number anybody else can use

[edited]

hold till march

does private insurance cover it in canada or only some plans

anyone in the prairies with a long last leg in february

postal handled winter better than the courier for me, mostly because the courier van sat outside for hours

the depot delay in winter runs longer than in summer and that is the part people do not plan for

LO

whats a realistic monthly figure with insurance

anyone in ontario able to say what theyre actually paying

LO

an ontario member reported around 350 canadian dollars a month at a pharmacy in 2024. one price at one dose

LO

pharmacy price in canada versus the us, is the gap as big as people claim

PP

slightly off topic but i hold orders between january and march where i can. a preference, not a rule anybody gave me

LO

does anyone hold their orders between december and march
spring ordering is easier and if you can wait, waiting is free

what does a month cost in canadian dollars at a pharmacy

coverage in canada is provincial and it is a patchwork. what a member in one province reported has almost never matched another
