Will Maine lead the way in importing prescription drugs?

Maine employers and consumers say that importing prescription pharmaceuticals from foreign mail-order pharmacies saves them a lot of money-- and legislators passed a law legalizing imports. The drug industry and the state's pharmacists say imports can be dangerous, even deadly, while supporters say the drugs are identical to those in the U.S. -- except for price. Now, a federal court will decide.
