Are Canadian Drugs Legal?
By Jim

Canadian drugs are unbelievably cheap, but is it legal to buy a prescription from a Canadian based pharmacy?

Americans have begun buying their prescription drugs online from internet pharmacies based in Canada. If you've ever looked at some of these Canadian drug websites, you may have noticed that many of the drugs are 80% cheaper in Canada then they are in the United States, which begs several questions.

Firstly, Canadians pay fantastically less for the same medicines than Americans because the Canadian government stipulates a price ceiling at which they allow drug manufacturers to sell to Canadian drug distributors, and the government also controls the prices at which Canadian distributors can then sell those drugs to the public. So, the pharmaceutical industry is tightly regulated and price controlled by the Canadian government, resulting in very cheap, very affordable prescription drugs.

This socialized system for prescription drugs is not anywhere to be found in the United States. In the U.S., drug companies are allowed to sell medicines to the public at whatever prices the market can bear. Isn't that nice? We live in a country so free that our drug companies can charge us $350 for 20 tablets of Viagra or Cialis, whereas in Canada you can get it for $90.

As a result of these enormous price discrepancies, internet pharmaceutical suppliers in Canada have launched extensive marketing campaigns targeted at the U.S. to capitalize on the American demand for affordable prescriptions. Visit any search engine and type in the words "Canada drugs" or simply type in the name of any prescription drug you can think of, and you'll find a ton of Canadian-themed sponsored links for online pharmacies based in Canada selling drugs that are so cheap it makes your eyes pop.

But is this legal? According to the FDA, the importation or re-importation of drugs into this country from a foreign source is against the law. Simply put, it is technically illegal to buy drugs from Canada that were either manufactured in Canada or manufactured in the United States and then sold to Canadian distributors. Is this dumb? Absolutely.

The FDA says that they can't guarantee the "quality" of the drugs from Canada, that these drugs might be dangerous, that they might have been poorly manufactured or improperly formulated, or manufactured in facilities in Southeast Asia.

So, the FDA is dismissing the idea of allowing Americans to legally purchase drugs from Canada because the products might have been made in a bathtub in Cambodia, because I suppose Canadians are too dumb to make this stuff on their own. This is an absurd excuse on the part of the FDA.

The FDA could regulate the Canadian pharmaceutical trade, and investigate as to which Canadian pharmacies, online or offline, are making the drugs themselves and/or buying the drugs directly from American drug manufacturers, as opposed to those that are making them in foreign countries.

Most of the drugs sold by Canadian internet pharmacies are drugs that were made in the USA, and have simply been sold to Canadian distributors. Some of these drugs are manufactured by Canadian manufacturers. But rather than publish a buyers guide for Americans and allowing us to buy our drugs from "certified Canadian pharmacies", they make the whole practice illegal to increase the profitability of the American drug industry.

Yes, it is true that there are some rogue companies on the internet masquerading as Canadian pharmacies that are actually Mexican pharmacies that don't even have a doctor and pharmacist review your medical history before sending you the medicine.

But the FDA could easily set up a legal Canadian-American drug trade where the FDA makes it legal for Americans to buy their drugs from a select group of Canadian pharmacies that buy all their products directly from the U.S. or manufacture their drugs in the facilities of Canada's major drug companies.

This isn't likely to happen, however, because we have an administration in Washington that is for the corporations and by the corporations, and an FDA whose sole purpose is to protect the windfall profits of the drug manufacturers while allowing drug companies to make and sell hugely overpriced, noxious drugs that kill us, like Vioxx and others they've allowed onto the market that produce harmful and sometimes lethal side effects.

If the FDA sponsored a system of legal and regulated prescription drug buying from Canada, this would force American pharmaceutical companies to drop their prices by 80% to compete, resulting in a better situation for the consumer. The drug companies would still make profits, because the demand for the drugs would go up tremendously if they suddenly became affordable for people without health insurance, but the profits wouldn't quite be the same.

For the time being, Americans will continue to have to choose between buying food for their family or buying health insurance they can't afford that hardly covers the costs of the drugs they can't buy.

Sildenafil, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase subtype 5, prevents indomethacin-induced small-intestinal ulceration in rats via a no/cgmp-dependent mechanism
We examined the effect of sildenafil, an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase subtype 5, that catalyzes hydrolysis of 3?,5?-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), on indomethacin-induced small-intestinal ulceration in rats and investigated the mechanism of this action, especially in relation to endogenous nitric oxide (NO). Animals without fasting were given indomethacin (10 mg/kg) s.c. and then killed 24 h later. Indomethacin produced hemorrhagic lesions in the small intestine, accompanied by a promotion of enterobacterial invasion and the expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS) as well as myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity in the mucosa. Sildenafil (3?20 mg/kg), given p.o. 30 min before indomethacin, dose-dependently reduced the severity of these lesions, with co... MedWorm Message: Find out how you can <a href="http://www.medworm.com/rss/medicalsponsorship.php" target="_self">get your message across here</a> by sponsoring this MedWorm news feed.
The effect of sildenafil citrate on bladder outlet obstruction: a mouse model
To investigate if sildenafil citrate can inhibit the functional and structural changes of the detrusor in a murine model of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO). Phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors have recently been used for treating urinary symptoms associated with prostatic obstruction, but it is unclear whether PDE-5 inhibition acts on the prostatic urethra or the bladder. In 18 male Balb/CAN mice, partial BOO was created and the mice allowed to survive for 6 weeks. Half of the mice (nine) were treated with oral sildenafil citrate daily (10 mg/kg) by oral lavage (BOO + V), and half (nine) were not (BOO). Six mice were used as sham-operated controls and received no sildenafil. The mice were assessed by urodynamics at baseline and after 6 weeks, with a measurement of volume at first ...

A critical appraisal of erectile function in animal models of diabetes mellitus
The study of erectile function in diabetic animal models has revealed physiological alterations in neural, vascular, hormonal and endothelial function. The aims of this review are to further elucidate pathophysiological changes induced by diabetes mellitus and to introduce new concepts in the study of erectile dysfunction (ED) in animal models. The recognized pathophysiological mechanisms causing diabetic ED include oxidative stress and hormonal imbalance. The evolving treatments for ED include advanced glycosylated endproduct (AGE) inhibitors, phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors, protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, hormone replacement, and gene transfer techniques. Our current understanding of how these multiple pathophysiological mechanisms contribute to ED is discussed. In this review, d...
Pivotal effects of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on myocyte contractility and viability in normal and ischemic hearts.
This article provides an overview of the current laboratory and clinical evidence, as well as the cellular mechanisms by which the inhibitors of PDE3, PDE4 and PDE5 exert their beneficial effects on normal and ischemic hearts. It seems that PDE inhibitors hold great promise as clinically applicable agents that can improve cardiac performance and cell survival under critical situations, such as ischemic heart attack, cardiopulmonary bypass surgery, and heart failure.Acta Pharmacologica Sinica advance online publication, 8th December 2008; doi: 10.1038/aps.2008.1.

[pulmonary arterial hypertension related to systemic sclerosis in 2008.]
[Pulmonary arterial hypertension related to systemic sclerosis in 2008.] J Mal Vasc. 2008 Dec 8; Authors: Agard C, Haloun A, Hamidou MA Systemic sclerosis-related pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe disease affecting about 1000 patients in France. In 2008, all scleroderma patients are screened for PAH by a yearly cardiac Doppler ultrasonography. The pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis-related PAH is poorly known but it seems that besides common arteriolar remodeling (media hypertrophy, intimal thickening, endothelial proliferation), venular lesions suggesting obstructive venous disease and inflammatory lesions may be also be involved. Prostacyclin and analogues, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (sildenafil) and endothelin-1 receptor antagonists are proposed as specif...

Sexuality and the menopause.
Authors: Pitkin J Sexuality is innate within all women to a greater or lesser extent, and is affected by a number of extrinsic factors that occur in the menopausal transition. Assessing hormone status is difficult as evidence exists that sex hormones may differ between ethnic groups, and that bio-assays may be insensitive at lower testosterone levels. Data are available on the prevalence of female sexual dysfunction, but results from cross-sectional studies differ from those of longitudinal studies. The original traditional models of human sexual response have been challenged, and new models have been defined which show more complex interaction between intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Definitions of sexual dysfunction have been redefined. There are a limited number of randomized, place...

Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn: therapeutical approach.
Authors: Latini G, Del Vecchio A, De Felice C, Verrotti A, Bossone E Persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN), is defined as a failure of the pulmonary vasculature to relax at birth and consequently of the normal adaptation to extra uterine life of the fetal heart/lung system, resulting in hypoxemia. This condition, occurs in about 1-2 newborns per 1000 live births and despite significant improvements in treatment it is associated with substantial infant mortality and morbidity. Over the years wider application of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) therapy and improved ventilation strategies including surfactant, high-frequency oscillatory ventilation has led to a decrease in the need for invasive life-sustaining therapies such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).

Pulmonary arterial hypertension: need to treat.
Authors: Lykouras D, Sampsonas F, Kaparianos A, Efremidis G, Karkoulias K, Tsoukalas G, Spiropoulos K Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is defined by a persistent elevation in pulmonary artery pressure with normal left-sided pressures. It is characterized by increased pulmonary vascular resistance due to increased vascular tone and structural remodeling of pulmonary vessels. PAH is a quite rare condition, thus considering the rarity, subtle presentation, and diagnostic dilemma commonly posed by this disease, underdiagnosis and underreporting are probably widespread. In order to reach a diagnosis the use of echocardiography, right-heart catheterization and the six-minute walk test is essential. As far as therapy is concerned, the patient should be supported by oxygen, diuretics, ant...

Pde5 inhibitors and pulmonary hypertension
Abstract  Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are important components in cellular signaling in many vascular beds. Although the most recognized PDE inhibitor, sildenafil, a specific PDE5 inhibitor, is best known for its effect on the penile vascular bed resulting in erection, it also has therapeutic effects in other vascular beds, including the coronary and pulmonary vasculature. The first large, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial using sildenafil in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension was reported in 2005. As a result of this and other studies, sildenafil is now used to treat idiopathic pulmonary hypertension. Future studies are required to assess the potential use of other PDE5 antagonists and combination therapy on pulmonary hemodynamics, functi...

Type 5 phosphodiesterase expression is a critical determinant of the endothelial cell angiogenic phenotype.
Authors: Zhu B, Zhang L, Alexeyev M, Alvarez DF, Strada SJ, Stevens T Type 5 phosphodiesterase (PDE5) inhibitors increase endothelial cell cGMP, and promote angiogenesis. However, not all endothelial cell phenotypes express PDE5. Indeed, whereas conduit endothelial cells express PDE5, microvascular endothelial cells do not express this enzyme, and they are rapidly angiogenic. These findings bring into question whether PDE5 activity is a critical determinant of the endothelial cell angiogenic potential. To address this question, human full length PDE5A1 was stably expressed in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells. hPDE5A1 expression reduced the basal and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-stimulated cGMP concentrations in these cells. hPDE5A1-expressing cells displayed attenuated net... MedWorm Message: Find out how you can <a href="http://www.medworm.com/rss/medicalsponsorship.php" target="_self">get your message across here</a> by sponsoring this MedWorm news feed.
