Have any of you in the U.S. used a Canadian pharmacy to get your Rifaximin? My doctor is working on an appeal (Insurance denied prior authorization), but if the appeal is unsuccessful I don't really have $2800 for one round of treatment.

It's unfortunate that the first-line treatment for IMO includes a drug that has never been FDA approved to treat it. It's an easy insurance denial - a drug that is being used off-label.

Canada has different patent arrangements with drug companies than the U.S. does, and they have a generic Rifaximin. I've never tried to order from a Canadian pharmacy so just wondering if anyone here has.
