Tightened Regulation of Imported Prescription Meds

As many of you know, with the recent court ruling against Rx Depot, the USA has tightened its citizen's ability to import prescription meds. This is true for Canada, China, and all other countries exporting affordable meds to the USA. The FDA and US Customs are strictly enforcing the import laws. In South Florida (lots of retirees) and in Canadian border states, great efforts were made to import prescription meds. Now, those efforts have been quashed. I am truly saddened. The USA is the only civilized country in the world that doesn't have government price controls on medications.
 
Greed and paperwork bullshit. This country does the dumbest things sometimes. That's why I live somewhere else as much as I can.

What about the FDA Ruling from 1988 Chapter 5 ? It says you can import non-scheduled prescription drugs if they are for personal use and do not exceed 3 months supply. What about it? It's cancelled or what?

They have to be made to FDA standards, which includes an FDA approved facility, etc.

From the policy:
"Unapproved new drugs are any drugs, including foreign-made versions of U.S. approved drugs, that have not been manufactured in accordance with and pursuant to an FDA approval. Under the Act, FDA may refuse admission to any drug that "appears" to be unapproved, placing the burden on the importer to prove that the drug sought to be imported is in fact approved by FDA."
 
thats really sad, its the people who dont have a lot of cash that suffer, and the huge drug companies that win on this one
