I live in Russia and no little about Hep C - was in a store today and talking to a girl I know a little who works there. I mentioned something about how even some people in Russia now doing gift shopping in the Internet - she asked if medicie is cheaper in Americ and if it cn be bought on the Internet - as it turns out she just found out she has Hep C and in Russia the cost of PEGASYS is about $1,400/month and Ribaviron about $650/month - as she makes only about $300/month she obviously will be doing without these on Canadian sites but all of them I foudn said not available in Canada. I guess most people in America have a lot of money to pay but the way I figure the price here would be over $23,000 for 48 weeks or what she earns in 6 years. I was shocked to see how much the drug companies can charge - I read today that a suspected 40 million cases are yet unconfirmed in China - and of course they also will not be able to try this medicine.
Anywy if you know of a way to get it cheaper I will pass the information along.
Thanks
