Thank You for Making Your Voices Heard
We want to express our sincere appreciation to every patient, family member, and healthcare advocate who stepped forward to defend affordable prescription access. Whether you contacted your members of Congress, shared personal experiences, or supported advocacy campaigns through the Campaign for Personal Prescription Importation (CPPI)(opens in new tab), your engagement played a central role in highlighting the importance of personal prescription imports.
While this 90-day delay provides important relief, ongoing communication with elected representatives remains vital to securing permanent protections.
What This Extension Means for Meds90 Patients
- Uninterrupted Order Fulfillment: Meds90 is actively accepting and dispensing prescription orders through our licensed pharmacy partners. Maintaining dependable, uninterrupted delivery of your maintenance medications remains our top focus.
- Current Border Procedures Remain Active: Shipments entering the United States will clear customs under standard informal entry procedures through January 20, 2027.
- Finalizing Long-Term Compliance Frameworks: This 90-day window enables our pharmacy network, logistics coordinators, and customs specialists to work alongside regulators to ensure sustainable, compliant delivery channels moving forward.
Recommended Next Steps for Patients
Because the regulatory framework is still set to take effect in early 2027, planning ahead is the best way to prevent transit bottlenecks:
- Plan Around Winter Holiday Volumes: International mail hubs see substantial package volume spikes between late November and early January. To ensure your 90-day supply arrives safely before the January 20 cutoff, we recommend submitting your refills by mid-to-late December 2026 or during the first week of January 2027.
- Review On-Hand Medication: Check your current supply of maintenance medications now. Scheduling your refill early helps prevent any last-minute transit pressure as the new date nears.
- Verify Prescription Details: Check that your prescription on file is active and has valid refills remaining from your doctor.
- Maintain Grassroots Advocacy: Patient engagement helped achieve this extension, and keeping pressure on lawmakers remains essential:
- Write to your congressional representatives: Remind officials that affordable prescription access is vital for American households.
- Sign the CPPI petition: Add your name to support national protections for affordable personal medication importation.
- Call your senators: Direct constituent phone calls have a proven track record of influencing policy discussions.
- Share your story: Providing real-world accounts of why affordable medications are essential to your healthcare budget is the most compelling tool for lasting reform.
