I have a valid prescription for Arimidex. My pharmacy has the price at $330 per 30 1 mg tablets (30 week supply). It’s been price-creeping for a while now. I’d like to go elsewhere.
Turning to the Internet, I see a range of prices between 150 to 265, but many are Canadian pharmacies.
Would the forum know of any legal online alternatives? And can a U.S. citizen legally order from Canada? This will all be out-of-pocket, so insurance is not in the equation.
Thanks. Endorsements and personal experiences with any reputable online provider would be welcomed.
Some Canuks are ordering that way. Some suppliers will send to Canada and some will not. Try to find info about shipping before you order. It will never be considered “legal”. From a legal point of view, way safer than a Canadian ordering DHEA! Most anything proven to be safe and effective becomes prescription or banned in Canada. Many things that are supplements in the USA are illegal there. You will be looking for “research chemicals”, liquid form, “not for human consumption”.
I’ve been looking online in anticipation of ordering in the future. Now that I’ve found a doc who works in this field and when my labs come back and I get a prescription. (Have to keep things above board given my line of work.)
I did find an overseas Indian dispensary that has good pricing. I suspect for off-brand stuff. http://alldaychemist.com/ $23.81 for fourteen 1mg tablets of Arimidex.
My question still is though, and I’ll piggy-back it onto yours, is this stuff legit and is it legal, with a valid prescription, to order?
Thanks to both. I’m not sure I follow your response, KSman. I’m an American wondering if it is legal to order Arimidex (the prescription, not an over-the-counter supplement) from a Canadian pharmacy. You are right regarding the supplements in Canada. They are less likely to be legal.
FirePig, today I spoke with a site. I asked directly if it was legal to order Arimidex from a valid U.S. prescription. She said yes, but “check with your pharmacy to make sure they can forward the prescription to Canada.” So I did, and my current pharmacy said there was no problem.
The Canadian pharmacy said it may take up to three weeks and noted that the pills might come from overseas, then through their company.
The price posted is 159 USD (currently a promotion down from 189) for 28 1 mg. tablets. That’s about 180 dollars less than the quotes I get locally. In fact I think I got one local quote over 400 dollars.
I haven’t decided to follow up, but with these price differences, I may try.
Don’t forget there is the research chemical route. 100% legal and the same exact chemical as the arimidex tabs. The only difference is 60 mg’s of liquid arimidex costs around $75.00 versus $159.00 for 28 mg’s of tablets. Yopu may want to consider the liquid option since you are paying out of pocket…
A follow-up post. I went on to order one 28 tablet package from canadadrugpharmacy. With shipping it came to 169 USD. It arrived in about two weeks. It was all banged up, and if memory serves it had come from Turkey by way of the UK, possibly to Canada and then to me in the US. I can verify that it was the real thing based on the package and my own body’s response. The expiration date is 09/2014.
The current price, by the way, is 139 USD (without shipping).
The risk in a foray like this is not so much that the companies are sinister or illegitimate. It’s that, if something goes wrong, you may not have much recourse other than phone and email.

my Adex costs me $3 a dose even with insurance. the research chemical route costs me $0.25 a dose. no brainer.
i ordered from one source and i had a hard time getting the dosing right, and I found some floating shit in the vial…so i went back to the pharmacy route. I reduced my dosing to .25 mg E3D, which seems to be working, so the price per dose is not too high. I may try another company, but am not in a hurry to do so. So, for now, I go with the pharmacy.
Google is your friend for research chems.
I just ordered my adex from one place I have used several times in the past, although they are being a bit slow in response/shipping outside of the “we got your order it will ship in a couple of days” email. I think it was $60/30ml. Measuring the dose is easy as well based on the other things I have received from them - just use a 1ml insulin syringe. Some companies use measured droppers, others just a dropper.
My doc thinks I’m crazy for needing a “cancer drug”. Thus, my only current recourse is the online route.
Anastrozole is available as a generic now. I’m paying $14.00 for 24 1mg tabs with insurance (a 90 day supply). Beats the hell out of the underdosed research chem stuff I was using (according to my labs that is).
i order my arimidex from 4rx.com no script needed but i keep one on hand as australian customs are bastards, they do their job to well. But they have never picked up an order from these guys, they only seem to check supplements i order and they nabbed my order of kava extract, what stinks is u can order it in australia for twice the price and half the quantity. Arimidex cost me $79 for 30 pills and because im regular customer i get an extra 30% pills or 15% discount. I order other meds off these guys and have never had a problem. They are generic but do the job. There antivirals have helped bring my chronic viral infections down so i know there legit and heard from others who have had good dealings with them.
Wow that’s a crazy amount to pay. I have a valid prescription and my doctor sent me to a compounding pharmacy below, relax everyone it’s a US based pharmacy in Alabama. It’s basically the generic for Arimidex, but I paid $20 a month for 9 (0.5mg) capsules. I inject twice per week so I take it on the days of my injections. OH…and shipping is free…you can’t beat it.
