Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 So if US Citizens are buying/ordering their medications from Canada because they are less expensive, why can't cetrucil be shipped to Canada? I believe it is an over the counter product here.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 Darlin, can you find out what a six month supply would run, and the shipping costs?? I called Glaxxo (the manufacturer) but have not heard from them yet. I'm hoping they are willing to sell it to me direct, that would circumvent having to deal with Canada Customs. If they will not I'll have to find out what the customs regulations are. No point sending it to me just to have it confiscated.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 Aletta, Here is the website for Citrucel (bulk forming laxative) it contains USA stores that sell it over the internet. However it states "This site is intended for U.S. residents only." Under contact us it has an email form to ask questions.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 I was at that site yesterday and forwarded the website address to the group (around midnight last night). Purchasing on-line requires a credit card, something poor people don't usually have (I certainly don't). I have telephoned GlaxoWelcome in Richmond, BC, but they have yet to get back to me. The last Xray of my gut, showed how badly something has to be done. Last month I spent $70 dollars (almost 10% of my monthly total budget) on laxatives, to no avail. Taking Deb up on this may be my only hope, if I can get the customs thing worked out. I haven't a clue why BC is the only province that the product is not available. Many things are not available that would help.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 Aletta, Okay here is a bulk forming laxitive that is available in Canada: http://www.metamucil.com/ Take care, Bill Werre -------------------------------------------- Aletta Mes wrote: I was at that site yesterday and forwarded the website address to the group (around midnight last night).

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 That product was not even a little helpful; I was diagnosed with IBS (which was no doubt even then MSA realted); the nerves controlling shincster activty are affected by MSA and are for week on end in painful spasm, not allowing for even the passage of gas - or coexisting with seperate bowel spasms; Psyllium the active ingredient in Metamucil ferments and causes painful gas, the only product which does not do that is Citrucel. I could try drinking gallons of pulpy orange juice -but I already know that's not going to happen. One dose of metamucil expands my abdomen 3 " within hours and may take a very long time (days) to dissapate. excuse the spelling, but I do get tired - my head hurts - i'm feeling mighty low At 5/27/02 06:24 PM Monday, you wrote: Aletta, Okay here is a bulk forming laxitive that is available in Canada: http://www.metamucil.com/ Take care, Bill Werre -------------------------------------------- Aletta Mes wrote: I was at that site yesterday and forwarded the website address to the group (around midnight last night).

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2002 Report Share Posted May 27, 2002 Aletta, You may be right about IBS, but, it is the most common diagnoses made by general practioners in the US to date. I know what your talking about, I've had it for about 20 years.
