Just beware that Walmart may be the cheapest BUT 99% of their generic drugs are from OTHER THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES. And go figure, your insurance company approves it and there is legislation that 'makes' them fill it with generics now.
I just went round and round with the doc to insist on the script that I get the brand name of my meds made right here in the US. :R
Check your label you will be mildly shocked how many of them come from another country. These countries do not have any standards regarding conditions, purity, dosage, etc.they have to abide by when filling these drugs. Google Walmart, India, Ranbaxy Laboratories.
"..Indian pharmaceutical companies account for half of the warning letters issued by the FDA across the world...."
"...India is the second-largest supplier of over-the-counter and prescription drugs to the U.S..."
I watched several documentaries showing the inside of these pharmaceuticals where they make these drugs and the FDA warning letters and I won't buy any of my meds or my dogs meds at a Walmart. Just saying.
