Definition: Reimported drugs are prescription medications approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that were made in the United States, sent abroad, and then brought back into the United States. Currently, it is illegal for residents of the United States to reimport prescription medications.
Examples: If a drug company makes an FDA-approved prescription drug in the United States and sends that drug to a pharmacy in Canada, it is illegal for you to buy that drug in Canada and bring it back into the United States.
