  • still_here_2024 — spring ordering is easier and if you can wait, waiting is free 22:44
  • van_isle_vial — nobody here can tell you what your plan covers. plans differ inside the same province, never mind between them postal handled winter better than the courier for me,… 22:52
  • bea_reconstitutes — insulating against cold is the same kit as insulating against heat. the pack is a buffer in either direction 22:54
  • bea_reconstitutes — i hold orders between january and march where i can. a preference, not a rule anybody gave me 23:19

canadian pharmacy pricing was well below the american equivalent in every comparison members have made in here

the border question comes up a lot and nobody here will tell you what to declare. that gets stopped quickly, for what its worth

postal handled winter better than the courier for me, mostly because the courier van sat outside for hours

has anyone compared a canadian pharmacy price to an american one properly

does private insurance cover it in canada or only some plans

is a frozen lyophilised vial ruined or is that fine

quebec has its own drug plan and it worked differently from the rest in everything i read a year ago

freeze thaw cycling is the concern rather than one freeze, and that is my read of it rather than a lab result

the freezing worry is more room theory than published data for these specific compounds and we should keep saying so

i was wrong in here about a province covering it, i had read about a pilot programme and assumed it was policy

a member in the territories reported everything arriving eventually and nothing arriving quickly

cheaper than the us

anyone in the territories, does anything arrive at all

BR

i ask for gel packs even in january because the mass slows the temperature swing, not because it warms anything, ask me again in a month

i hold orders between january and march where i can. a preference, not a rule anybody gave me

an ontario member reported around 350 canadian dollars a month at a pharmacy in 2024. one price at one dose

the depot delay in winter runs longer than in summer and that is the part people do not plan for

i had a parcel sit in an unheated depot at minus eighteen for two days and the powder tested fine
