Dr. Horwitz:

If I were going outside of the U.S., I would go for a known drug company as opposed to a generic company I have never heard of, but most of the time, I like the FDA regulation of our medications, but I have sent patients, there are some antihistamines that are not available in the U.S., I have sent patients to other countries, but I make sure they are getting a brand name from a reputable pharmaceutical company.
