Buying meds from Canada.

My wife takes an expensive steroid for a rare autoimmune disorder. Luckily she most likely won't be taking it forever, but it is time to refill it and since it is the start of 2016, we will be paying 100% of the cost until our $3200 deductible is met. After that, we pay 20%.
The drug costs $1100 for a 45 day supply. I talked to a Canadian mail order pharmacy which will sell me the brand name drug for $420 for a 90 day supply, or generics raging from $360 / 90 days to $110 / 90 days. Note the filling this in the US costs me $1100 for 45 days, not 90.
Is suspect we will hit our $3000 deductible no matter what, so it really isnt a dollar for dollar savings. Also purchasing the Canadian drugs won't count towards my deductible, and I doubt I can use my HSA account. All that said, the savings is too much to ignore. Is there any reason why not to order the brand name drug from the Canadian supplier? Safety? Legality?
All this makes me feel old :(
