price for cialis and retin A

Interested in finding out what the cost might be for these on the French side. Anyone know?

Dunno. What I know is taking Cialis + Rogaine made my hair look like Don King's so I stopped. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Wow, Cialis and Rogaine did that?
Sounds like fun!
Cheers

Come on guys, I don't know the answer to the question either, but it's a legitimate question. If someone knows the answer and doesn't want to post it publicly, please send them a PM. Thanks.

Retin A is cheaper on the Dutch side. Was about $25. a tube a few years ago. Might be more now, but still cheaper than US.

You can't bring your own?

We got retin-A at the pharmacy by Yvette's in Orleans for $17/tube last fall.

The question was, what is the price? They are checking to see if it's cheaper in SXM..

Never bought cialis but have bought viagra

No idea about Cialis, but Retin A is definitely much cheaper in SXM than the US. I have purchased it at Maho Pharmacy for around $24, so it sounds as though the other OP's pharmacy on the French side is cheaper.

Does that require a prescription, or is it easily available?

That pricing is definitely cheaper than the US.

Just curious if you need a prescription for rx meds / or is it like Mexico where you can just walk into a pharmacy and buy !

Also curious If Cialis or Viagara requires prescription?

Have only purchased Viagra. No prescription needed.

Wendy, did you buy it off the shelf?

There may be many products readily available, that in the US they charge crazy $$ for, and require a rx.

I've gotten Biafine there, and never thought to look for the Retin A or even ReFissa. I shall definitely be checking in less than 8 weeks, as I put it on my SXM list!

Ok!!! While on this subject. Does anybody know if Latisse is available at a good price on the island???

yes I get latisse at Maho for about $35 a tube and my husband gets the inhaler for his asthma for about 9-10 dollars each...we cannot afford it here in the states even with our insurance it is over $40.00 each...

Wow!!! That's awesome. Did you get the Latisse at the Pharmacy in Maho?? Will be there soon!

A valid Rx was required for my wife's purchase of retin-A at the Orleans pharmacy. Our quote of $17/tube was based solely on her (possibly faulty?) recollection of last Nov. --sxmdoc

YES MAHO PHARMACY...they are the best !!!! they will also mail it to my home if I run out..

Thanks. Now, will I need a prescription???

Is there a resource that I can use to determine what is available without bringing a prescription?

not for latisse or the inhalers....

Good to know about the inhalers....
ProAir and Asmanex add up.

yes they do...and our prescription plan is worthless...

As is ours, but as nearly everything is on a 90 day supply and 4 refills (annual supply) we don't have a script we can bring. How do people get around this?

would the container with # of refills left suffice for that?

It doesn't here even at a different branch of the same pharmacy! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />

That is exactly what we did in 2014 at the Maho Pharmacy. We are from Canada, brought our packages with the prescription info and refills and had no issues with refills. As an aside we travel with some prescriptions just in case of trouble vs buying some drugs we may not need. When we checked at the Maho pharmacy they said they would have filled those had we asked.

wow...rough.

All of our pharmacies around here are fighting to have people transfer their rx's....and honor a refill if you bring it in.

In the US Viagra 100 mg tablet $32.00
In SXM 100 mg tablet $15.00.
I have gotten tablets with and without a script.

you can call Maho, and ask them what you'd need scripts for. I personally have never needed any scripts for any of my meds. but none of them are a controlled substance. I think you should be ok with just the name of the med. if its not controlled.

I bought Retin A last summer at the Phillipsburg Pharmacy and the Cole Bay Pharmacy and it was 21.00 for the large tubes. I bought the strongest they had which is the .1%. I didn't need a prescription for it. You can buy as many as you want. I needed a Z-Pack for a sinus infection, but I didn't have a prescription . Not a problem the pharmacist said. She called the Dr.,and I paid her 25.00 for the Dr,'s call + the cost of the z pack. They were very helpful with all our needs.

Retin-A $25/tube for 1% at the pharmacy in Phillipsburg. Just ask the pharmacist and they will get for you and ring you up. Good to know that it is slightly less expensive on the French side.

I have read all reply's and did not see an answer if Cialis is available and where if available

Email Simpson Bay Pharmacy and ask them. sbp@caribserve.net Pharmacist name is Tamara Landino

Just wondering, has anyone run into trouble with USCustoms for bringing Rx drugs obtained abroad back with them, and not in a US prescription bottle? I would think one or two bottles would be fine but could envision an issue if transporting a larger volume.

I bring all my prescription meds filled here to the USA every time I travel. Never had a problem.

Sent them a PM with private email address for owners of a pharmacy. They can get most anything and am happy to please. Hopefully they are taken care of.

Quick qestion, not related to Cialis and Retin A, but prescription question also. My husband takes Xanax (generic Alprozolam) and we are leaving tomorrow morning and he doesn't have enough and we didn't get it filled here. Would he be able to get a prescription bottle refilled in SXM if we have the bottle with the prescription number and refills available on it? Hope this makes sense.

When you say you didn't get it filled 'here', you mean where you physically are today? It might be easier to check with a pharmacy where you are right now and see if they can call the pharmacy where the prescription is lodged, and get them to authorize a refill today.

From my ancient pharmacy background, I would say "no" but anything is possible in SXM. It is a little bit more of a "controlled" drug that what has previously been discussed.

Try the pharmacy in Maho. I refilled a prescription there using the original bottle. And it cost slightly less than my Medicare co-pay amount!

I ran out of Ambien while I was on island and the Simpson Bay Pharmacy wouldn't refill even though there was a refill left. it was a 90 day supply and was last refilled in November 2014 so that may have had something to do with it.

They said that if the pharmacy faxed the prescription or attached the prescription to an email they would gladly refill it

Where are the following pharmacies located that are mentioned earlier in this thread: Maho, Cole Bay and Phillipsburg? I know where each area is, however, landmarks, etc would be very helpful and appreciated!
Wife got excited about the possibility of getting Retin A without an RX. Thx all.

Update. We just (2 days ago) purchased 2 (30 g) tubes of Metrogel and 2 (30 g) tubes of retin-A at the Orleans pharmacy for a total cost of $29.83. Vastly less expensive than the States. --sxmdoc

Where is Orleans pharmacy? Was an RX needed? Can you also answer my original post regarding pharmacy locations? Thx all

If you are coming from Orient to Orleans the pharmacy is on the left about the middle of town. It is past the road to Oyster Pond and across from the gas station near Yvette's. The pharmacy we use in Phillipsburg is near Back Street on the end closest to Bobby's Marina. We park in the lot on the salt pond as close to end nearest Bobby's Marina that we can. Bobby's Marina may not be good reference point but it is the only thing on that end of Phillipsburg that comes to mind. There is doctors office next door.

Thanks. What is the name of the Phillsburg pharmacy? We'll be on Back St tomorrow doing some shopping.
