Canadian Online Pharmacies Still Open for Business Says CanadaUSPharmacycom

Canada's Health Minister, Ujjal Dosanjh recently announced measures to monitor and regulate Canada's online pharmacy industry but none of the proposed initiatives look to be detrimental to the current mail order trade to individual U.S. patients. Americans who rely on more affordable Canadian medications can rest assured that the service will continue uninterrupted.







"It's business as usual for our pharmacy and we are continuing to dispense every order," says David Chan owner of CanadaUSPharmacy.com (http://www.canadauspharmacy.com) in Winnipeg, Canada. "The Health Minister's plan still has to be legislated and it is not necessarily adverse to our practice. The bottom line is that we may face some regulatory changes but this trade will continue."



In general, plans introduced by the Canadian Health Minister to be addressed in the fall include:



A drug supply monitoring network designed to gather data with the intent of averting a potential domestic supply shortage



A periodic ban on bulk exports as required related to supply of specific drugs

Re-defining the relationship between the Canadian doctor and U.S. patient to satisfy medical regulators



Although few specifics have been offered, it is clear that none of the steps will immediately de-rail the thriving online pharmacy trade.



"The Minister has indicated that he does not intend to kill the industry and has signaled that he is willing to work with all stakeholders," says David MacKay, consultant to the Canadian online pharmacies. "That's a positive gesture and we intend to take him at his word and work collaboratively to arrive at some common ground."



As a responsible pharmacy owner, David Chan emphasizes that licensed Canadian pharmacies have always been eager to cooperate with government regulators to demonstrate that their operations are legitimate and safe. "Our philosophy is that it is better to regulate this practice in the sunshine so our patients know that they are receiving approved drugs from licensed sources. We have nothing to hide, in fact we have sought additional accreditation" he adds.



As further support Chan points to some common sense steps that U.S. patients can take to avoid being deceived by unscrupulous and illegitimate drug suppliers. These steps can be viewed at http://www.ciparx.ca/art-steps-to-ensure-safety.html
