The Trump administration says it will set up a system allowing Americans to legally access lower-cost prescription drugs from Canada.Azar, a former drug industry executive, says U.S. patients will be able to import medications safely and effectively, with oversight from the Food and Drug Administration. States, drug wholesalers and pharmacists would act as intermediaries for consumers.

President Donald Trump is supporting a Senate bill to cap medication costs for Medicare recipients.Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar says he and President Donald Trump are working on a plan to allow Americans to import lower-priced prescription drugs from Canada.
