Statesville, NC

I am on a med. That i can't just stop taking. I applied for help and there are no funds available. I applied directly to the drug company and am waiting for an answer. I have a call in to my dr and hope to hear from them Monday.

Just found this out. If you have prescriptions to order in the US .. and even paying partial ...it costs an arm and a leg. There is a gal in MO She said her meds are out of the world even with her having some medical coverage. So ...she goes online and orders from Winnipeg, Manitoba. You have to get a prescription from your US Dr. and then there is a phone number to phone and they give you the details. She orders for 3 mos at a time. Here is the company info. She said they are very very helpful with getting you set up. Even reading on their site ... everyone has give a good review .DrugMartDirect.com
https://www.drugmartdirect.com/ Directions given: I contacted them 1st. I then got a prescription from my dr. I scanned the script on my computer then emailed/sent to them. Placed my order and then mailed the script to them. They are very helpful. If you get a script, you can call them and they will help you through the process.Their phone # is (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) Toll Free
So you phone them ... and then fax the prescription to them. Then you have to SEND the original to them as well.

You can see the facebook page for them https://www.facebook.com/drugmartdirect/ Her last order .. REMBMBER she orders 3 months supply at a time. Generic equivalents for Symbicort Inhaler..Budesonide / Formoterol Fumarate Dihydrate (℞)
100mcg/6mcg (80mcg/4.5mcg) Metered-Dose (Aerosol)
Add to Cart
(℞) Prescription required. Product of India. Shipped from Singapore. 360 doses is 47.90 us dollars you have about 10.00 shipping charge per shipment (not per order, per shipment) if you order more than one med at a time it is just one shipping charge.
Wow so that is about 3 mos. supply.

Thanks DeltafrankBlack .. but I am the one that posted this new info. However, I do not take Symbicort ..and I am a resident of Ontario. So .. after my 100. deductible I pay 4.11 per prescription.
