These prices for common rx drugs are from a column in my local Newspaper

                                            prices for 30 day supply

Drug                      US No insurance           US Federal Supply        
Canada
                                                                    Schedule  

Lipitor (40mg)                $95.99                      $64.74              
        $58.50
Celebrex(100mg)             94.99                        36.99                
        19.50
Paxil (20mg)                   86.99                        36.00              
           48.00
Nexium (20mg)               119.99                       73.39                
        70.20

Is this price differential out of line?
Why is the pharmaceutical industry backed by the federal goverment working to
close companies like RX Depot which try to help americans get cheaper drugs
from canada?
Are Canadian citizens dying from the poor quality of their prescription drugs?
Is the quality of american pharmaceuticals compared to canadian pharmaceuticals
great enough
to justify the price difference?
