- rk911Explorerif that's a Rx-required product you should be able to get it at any walgreens, CVS, wally or other pharmacy regardless of insurance coverage. since you know where you'll be call the area pharmacies and ask.

That's not the issue. It's all about $$$$. That's why we stock up on what we need in Mexico. I did find the telephone number for the big Purple Pharmacy in Los Algodones. They do have it for less than half of the US price. Guess we'll make a couple trips over and both of us can stock up. - John_JoeyExplorer

Make sure you tell them you're stocking up so that they give you the stuff with the longest expiration date. It's not in their best interest to do so otherwise. - ben31rvExplorerThere are now generic equivalents to it and those are pretty cheap.
- The_TexanExplorerThe Pharmacia Los Angles (Yellow store) around the corner from the Purple store is usually cheaper than the Purple Pharmacy. My inhaler is $7 less there.
