I wrote an op ed for The Hill ‘Congress Blog’ about the continuation of a PhRMA-funded effort to prevent access by consumers to lower cost international online pharmacies. They seem to have a new eye for extending criminal penalties for the sale of safe, genuine generic AND even brand medication through parallel trade. Over-zealous enforcement could have significant public health consequences. Much of this is within the American context but it’s worth taking note that consumers in many countries are affected.
