Canadian Pharmacies Can Save You Up to 89% – Here’s Proof

If you’re one of the millions of Americans staring at sticker shock every time you pick up a prescription, you’re not alone. I regularly hear from people who are forced to choose between filling their medication and paying the rent or buying groceries.

The truth is simple: U.S. pharmacy prices for many popular brand-name drugs are outrageously high – while equivalent, Health Canada-approved versions of the same drug are available for a fraction of the cost from licensed Canadian online pharmacies.

That’s why we at the Campaign for Personal Prescription Importation just released the results of a new price comparison study. In March 2026 we checked current 90-day supply prices on 10 widely prescribed brand-name maintenance drugs used for everyday conditions like Type 2 diabetes, blood clots, overactive bladder, IBS, and more. The results are eye-opening.

U.S. consumers can save 52% to 89% – with an average of more than 64% – by ordering 90-day supplies from licensed Canadian pharmacies instead of paying GoodRx cash prices or Amazon prices here at home.

For example:

• Jublia (antifungal): $2,236-$2,502 in the U.S. through GoodRx or Amazon, vs. $258 from Canada (89% savings)

• Xifaxan (treats IBS): $10,036-$11,234 in the U.S. vs. $2,326 from Canada (78% savings)

• Myrbetriq (for overactive bladder): $995-$1,129 in the U.S. vs. $315 from Canada (70% savings)

You can see the complete side-by-side chart for all 10 drugs – including Xarelto, Jardiance, Rybelsus, Farxiga, Trintellix, Premarin, and Eliquis – right here: View the Full Price Comparison Chart.

The human cost of these sky-high U.S. prices is heartbreaking. According to a recent Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) survey, about one in five adults (21%) have not filled a prescription because of cost, and roughly one in seven report cutting pills in half or skipping doses in the past year.

That kind of non-adherence isn’t just inconvenient – it can lead to serious health problems and even higher medical bills down the road. Personal importation from licensed Canadian pharmacies offers a safe, legal, and immediate lifeline for anyone struggling to afford their medications.
