Hi, Jann, I think our standards in Canada regarding drugs are as good as yours, perhaps, even more conservative in my opinion. If you buy Mirapex or any other drug for PD that is available in Canada, will be the same as in USA. Murray will know the best. I use some supplements bought in USA as they are not available in Canada due to restrictions regarding sufficient research on potential effects from the drugs or supplements. (Canada may not consider them safe.) One example of PD drugs: Mirapex and Requipp: in Canada we cannot legally drive if prescribed these drugs.( In our situation my husband takes Permax , for that reason.)
