Back story here."The Zube" may be gone but his words live on!
Thanks to Cary Byrd (their database encompasses PharmacyChecker-approved pharmacies as well as other pharmacies accredited by reputable organizations such as IMPAC, CIPA, MIPA and VIPPS) we can now take a look at how much of a gouging US cancer patients are getting when they have to pay for Casodex (50mg) tablets.
US price per tablet : $17.33
Canada: $6.13 per tablet (120 x 50 mg tabs = $735).
Australia: $7.63 (30 x 50 mg tabs = $228.86).
Israel: $7.70 (112 x 50 mg tabs = $862.56).
U.K.: $15.68 (28 x 50 mg tabs = $439).
So, Casodex is cheaper virtually everywhere else in the world - with the price in Canada about 65 percent less than the U.S. price cited.
Ouch!
