According to the
Boston Globe article on 05/04/2004: "President Bush's
chief healthcare official, Health and Human Services Secretary
Tommy Thompson, said he would recommend that Bush not stand
in the way of a bill to make importing prescription drugs
legal. "I think it's coming," Thompson said at a
news conference about new Medicare discount cards. "I
think Congress is going to pass it." The House approved
an importation bill last year, but it died in the Senate.
This year, a bipartisan group of senators, including Democrat
Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts and Republicans Trent Lott
of Mississippi and John McCain of Arizona, is rounding up
support that appears to be growing, placing more pressure
on the White House."
Market Overview
IMS Health's annual IMS World Review reveals that combined audited and estimated unaudited global pharmaceutical sales grew 9% at a constant dollar rate in 2003 to reach $491.8 billion. North America was again the most dynamic region accounting for roughly half of all global sales.
Opportunity
Canadian online pharmacy industry, virtually non-existent 4 years ago, is now an estimated 1 Billon per year business. The growth potential of the industry could be staggering, since it represents less then 1% of total prescription drug sales in North America.
