One very simple thing: lower their prices. |

To add to my very quick comment: Americans buy prescription drugs from Canadian online pharmacies for the very simple reason that the drugs are cheaper. Period. GSK can lower their American prices to eliminate this differential. This would be better than what they are currently doing, which is lobbying the US government for increased regulation and trade restrictions (they are doing this along with every other big pharma... net result of increased regulation is increased cost to the consumer). It will also be better than the current big pharma tactic of hinting that they will restrict the supply of drugs to Canada to match what they project are the national requirements, implying (without actually stating) that Internet drug sales will deprive Canadians of the drugs they need themselves. |
