I do know that you can buy drugs overseas a lot cheaper than you can here in the states. When I was in Egypt I had a very bad backache and remembered that my doctor had given me some Prednisone. So I asked the concierge at the Conrad International if he could hook me up to a doctor so I could get a prescription. He told me to go down by the back of the parking lot. What was there was a pharmacy. I asked about the Pred and they said how many? Cost in US was about $15, cost in Cairo was $.70. I also picked up a bunch of asthma inhalers for $2 each that are $15 here. Really glad I got that extra Pred 3 years ago - I used some last week for my back for the first time since coming back.
