A Prescription at almost 1/10 the price

Lamasil 250 mg made by the pharmaceutical company Novartis is prescribed for internal use to eliminate a type of fungus beneath the nails.

A local Walgreen wanted $450 for a prescription. When I was in Canada they said it would cost $150 (US) but they could not fill my prescription unless it was written by a Canadian doctor.

When I got home I noticed an ad for http://www.magendavidmeds.com/, an Israeli pharmacy, in the Hadassah Magazine (a Jewish Women's Organization). I called, sent in the prescription, and just received the prescription: total cost including shipping was........

$53.15.
