Diamox Rx

Hi. I will be in Peru in about 2 weeks then on to Cusco the following week. Is it possible to obtain some Diamox for altitude sickness in Lima before I go up from a Pharmacy there? Yes I could go to my HMO Dr. or clinic here in Miami and pay the $20 copay + at least another $20 for the Rx (most of it will proly not be used in a year). However if I could go to a legit Pharmacy legally and get a small script it could save me some $ and a trip to the evil HMO Drs. If possible would the cost savings be worth it?

Thanks.

P.S. - I searched Peru Expat but came up empty handed on my particulars.

Thank you again.

Just called the Pharma here in U.S:

Diamox Sequels $116 for 30 days supply.

Diamox 125mg 30 days only $14.

I bet the Sequels are the time released version. For $100 mas? No gracias Doctor.

Now we got the LFL so who needs to watch the NFL?
