Our Canadian discount pharmacy, RXBYFAX, helps you Save money.

We are fortunate that Rxbyfax.com is part of a global fulfillment organization. While we source products all over the world, every product we obtain fully complies with the strict safety and quality assurance standards of Health Canada, the equivalent of the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

We have several dispensaries located throughout the British Commonwealth, including London England, and we are opening more locations to ensure that we are able to provide you with medications at the best possible prices.

By buying your medications from our Canadian discount pharmacy you get Affordable prices, brand names and generic drugs, confidentially, and no hidden costs. Our Canadian Mail Order prices are competitive. We lower our prices when possible. We just require valid prescriptions and filling out an allergy form, a release form, a patient profile form, and an order form. We hope you find our helpful resources for medications and drug legislations valuable.
We offer the lowest prices possible on drugs to save you money. All prices quoted are in US dollars, and include shipping and handling fees for orders valued over US$99.00 to anywhere within North America and the Caribbean.

For all orders a US$9.95 shipping and handling charge will apply. All remaining international destinations such as transatlantic and transpacific, are subject to a US$19.95 shipping and handling charge.

There are no "membership fees or hidden add-ons" to buy from our Canadian discount pharmacy, just the cost of your medication. Our discount drug prices are in US dollars.

Our Canadian discount pharmacy shelters you from the high prices charged in the United States on many brand name and some generic prescription drugs. We are sorry but since we do not have a vet on staff, Canadian law prevents us from filling your companions prescriptions.
Why can you save so much money on your prescription costs?

  • The Canadian Government sets price controls on medications
  • Canadian dollar is also weaker than the American dollar
  • drug companies are not allowed to advertise in Canada
  • the average wage is also lower in Canada which makes drug pricing even more competitive.
  • Drug prices are fixed in the United States although legislation is pending for reimportation and for closing loopholes in generic laws(please see links on left). The European Union has been reimporting drugs for 25 years. In the United Kingdom, one out of every eight drugs is imported.

    Our procedures for first time ordering are simple. We do require you to fax or email a prescription from your doctor. After a review by our licensed Canadian Doctors, we can send you the prescription for up to a six months supply, and then refill your order.
    Please Note: please allow up to three to five weeks when you fax in your prescription due to mailing time and processing and about two to three weeks for refills.
    We supply many brand name and generic medications, which all come factory sealed.
    If you are a repeat customer, refilling the prescription is quite easy. We can only fill what your doctor has prescribed. We encourage you, if you are accustomed to the drug, to ask your doctor for a script with refills to help save you more money. Although we do not have automatic refills (sent without your request), all you have to do is call us at our toll-free number 1-888-773-2698 and use the refill option or fax the refill prescription if we don't already have it.
