TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 11, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Rx Processing Corporation (Pink Sheets:RXPC), one of the nation's leading sources of affordable prescription medications, announces that since inception the Company has worked diligently to establish a worldwide prescription drug distribution chain. Rx Processing Corp now has established partnerships and has the resources to provide its customers with safe and affordable drugs from the global providers with the lowest prices available.
Italy currently supplies Rx Processing Corp with safe prescription drugs. The pharmacy Rx Processing Corp is supplied from has been a family-owned and operated pharmacy for many centuries. Over the years, many generations of pharmacists, one after the other, have worked behind the same walnut wood counter, and millions of people have walked through their front doors. "Modern technology has not cancelled our tradition and our professionalism," say the current owners. The pharmacy has been fulfilling orders for US customers for several years and has experienced an average shipping time historically of approximately 4-5 days.
Peter Fiorillo, President of Rx Processing, comments, "Rx Processing Corp. customers buy the same (manufactured in Ireland) 20 mg of Lipitor at a cost of $223.04 mailed from Italy, that Americans buy in domestic retail pharmacies at an average cost of $313.45. This is just one in the handful of prescription drugs U.S. senior citizens take on a daily basis. These savings are critical for the millions of Americans that lack access to prescription drug coverage."
Rx Processing works with licensed pharmacies both domestically and internationally to provide top-quality lower-cost name brand and generic drugs to consumers. A cost savings of up to 84% is realized by filling prescriptions with either discounted U.S. or foreign government-approved drugs.
