Ordering eliquist from Canada and it coming from Turkey?

Posted by amyb5382 @amyb5382, Feb 28, 2025

My mom is being prescribed eliquist for her afib issues. Through her normal pharmacy with Medicare it was going to be 500 a month. Her doctor gave her a prescription to send to a Canada pharmacy where she can get for 225 but says it’s coming from Turkey? So is this the legit medication? Have others done this? Is there any cons?

I was prescribed Apixaban (the generic for Eliquis) 8 months ago for an AFIB occurrence. The local pharmacy charged $450 for a 90 day supply with Medicare Part D. My wife is also taking Eliquis for AFIB and a past stroke. I thought the US prescription price was outrageous and decided to investigate other sources.
When I subscribed to Mayo Clinic Connect I found several responses concerning mail ordering Apixaban thru a number of Canadian Pharmacies so I investigated those sources and blog recommendations.
I finally decided on the Canadian Pharmacy Store which offers discounted Eliquis from several sources. It's approved by the Canadian International Pharmacy Association and has excellent references. Here's their link: https://www.canadianpharmacystore.com
I called their 800 number and received their account forms and their process for ordering which entailed prescription orders from our doctor for my wife and myself, who was very willing to fax the prescription to them in a timely manner. He switched her from Eliquis to Apixaban.
I then chose which supplier to order from and filed our order forms with them. The whole process was very easy and has saved us a huge amount of money.
We've been able to fill our prescriptions for 90 day supplies for $71 per order and it takes about 2-3 weeks for the order to arrive in our mailbox.
We've been very satisfied with the service, the 800 number help line to answer questions and the prescriptions we've received.
There are a number of Canadian Prescription Referral Services to choose from that you can review by Googling that topic. I would urge you to be sure they are a Certified Canadian International Pharmacy and are a current member of PharmacyChecker.com.

Hope this helps with your cost cutting research. BTW they have many other drugs available for discounted mail order that US Pharmex companies are raking in Millions selling thru our US Pharmacies.

I just ordered the generic version of Xarelto ( Rivaroxaban) from "Canada Pharmacy Online" and it was really easy. USA $6.90/tablet Canada $1.57/tablet.

I have been getting Apixaban from Canadian Pharmacy for several years. My cardiologist connected me with them and I have been very pleased. Last year I had on order confiscated by our government and they sent me a new order free of charge.

Been on Eliquis for a year. Yes, I have seen Turkey as origin site on some of my rx containers.
