If you are getting them from your pharmacy, then they have to be approved by your drug agency and must be of the same quality as those manufactured in the U.S. or Canada and approved for sale there.

And yes, your pharmacist would have information on the manufacturer and their location.

I'm diasappointed and mad at times that sometimes when I get my script filled, the meds, although packaged and marked as Watson, etc and look identical, don't seem to have the right level of medication, sometimes none, as some pharmacies. Is it true that some of these "mom and pop" pharmacies get their meds online in bulk or something and charge us enormous amounts of money our insurance is not honored?
