A) Have them ask their doctor.Question about a specific situation:
Maple Leaf Meds has the best deal, when ordering, for Eliquis' generic: Apixaban. Lower cost than the name brand, which is also dispensed in non USA type quantities. 168 instead of 180 for example.
Not sure if the USA doctor would write a script for a generic of a drug not yet sold as the generic form. Any suggestions?
B) Have them ask the doctor if they would write a prescription that says generic substitution is ok, like they might do for a US fill.
C) Ask Maple Leaf if they receive the valid name brand prescription, could they substitute the generic as a fill for the prescription.
Those are things I think of that I might try if I was in that situation.
