Jan 28, 2004 -- FDA targets Alabama community for its prescriptions
Clark has often talked about buying prescription medicines in Canada. Its become increasingly controversial as more and more people buy meds from across the border. Its legal in the United States to import prescription medicines from Canada, as long as the pharmacy you are using has been certified as safe by the FDA. Yet, in a complete lack of act in good faith, the FDA refuses to verify that drugs from Canada are safe to use. But they are. And now, the FDA is going after a company that has been helping the citizens of Montgomery, Alabama save thousands of dollars. One community has saved $30,000 a month by purchasing meds from Canada. Its just one of many communities around the country setting up such programs. The commissioner of the FDA is totally mixed up on this. His job is to serve the American people, yet hes representing the U.S. pharmaceutical companies instead. Do not be intimidated by this miscarriage of justice. Clark has offered the FDA a chance to come on the air and talk about why the U.S. is clamping down on this trend. But he hasnt gotten any response. There is nothing wrong with bringing in a 90-day supply of medicine to the United States. And the FDA cannot shut this down.
