eDrugSearch.com Shares Legislative Guidance on Importing Prescription Drugs From Licensed Canadian Pharmacies

Mar 5, 2017

Online medication directory company offers insights for industry members who are following proposed legislation in Congress

SAN ANTONIO, Texas, USA - March 5, 2017 /MarketersMedia/ —

eDrugSearch.com, which has been an online destination for Americans who need to, and choose to order prescriptions online, today issued guidance to the pharmaceutical industry regarding recent proposed legislation in Congress that affects drug importation.

eDrugSearch has long advocated for licensed Canadian pharmacies as a widely accepted and safe alternative for those seeking cost benefits, enhanced privacy, relative convenience and increased access to generic drugs made possible by ordering prescription drugs online. From this experience, the company is in a position to offer expert insights into the legislation now being discussed in The Hill and other forums.

Senator Bernard Sanders has introduced a bill that would require foreign drug sellers to register with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The proposed law also calls for patients to provide a valid prescription to the Canadian pharmacy they're buying from. And, the law would give the FDA the authority to shut down "bad actors.”

“There’s a lot at play here, obviously,” said eDrugSearch.com's Canadian Pharmacy Directory. “Many parties are quite interested in how this legislation is likely to fare. We think the moment is right for it to be given strong consideration. At the same time, our basic guidance for those following this legislation is to take the safety concerns of various people seriously. Why? Because they’re valid concerns but they can be addressed through statute.”

The bill has 19 Senate co-sponsors, though some representatives are opposed based on concerns about the safety of imported rugs. Industry groups such as the Pharmaceutical Researchers and Manufacturers of America have contended that imported drugs may be counterfeit or unable to meet US safety standards. “Each issue they raise can be mitigated with regulations and oversight,” the Canadian Pharmacy Director added.

The site, https://edrugsearch.com, serves as a trusted directory for the world’s safest, registered online pharmacies. Customers can easily compare prescription drug prices and make informed decisions. The company encourages consumers to share their experiences by contributing ratings and reviews. Consumers will learn the best pharmacies for their needs, while searching for valuable coupons. The company requires proof of an online pharmacy license, adherence to rigid online pharmacy safety requirements, and adherence to verification standards set by third parties for online pharmacy accreditation organizations.
