I'm not 100% certain, but I don't think you need a script. (depends on the policy of whomever you order from)
> > Jacquie - I am not even sure if adrafinil is even being tested in Canada (I think it is in the U.S.). It seems us Canucks use the rest of the world (esp. Europe and South America) as guinea pigs, before even considering to allow a drug to be marketed in Canada. When will it hit the market in Canada? A rule of thumb is, when the Americans get it, we will get it in five years (and they haven't received approval, yet).

> thanks for the response, i needed a great laugh. many thanks! guess you can order the stuff...with a script for 90 days i guess fda allows drugs to come into u.s. that have not been approved....all this regulation is a bit absurd. thanks again!
