    Did you google name of drug and companies that might go generic for that drug.?

    If you have an expensive name brand drug, then odds are that it is generic (everywhere) but the US.

    My (deceased) husband was paying on average of $500 to $1,000 a month for drugs, then found in Canada, that all were generic and could buy 3 months supply for the cost of 1 month US.

    The canandian pharmacies are great, since you just input the name of the drug and they list the prices for (both) brand and generic.
