Melatonin U.K.

As usual, the British government believes it knows better than its citizens and treats us like infants. I’m talking about their making melatonin illegal this time. I used to be able to source some on EBay but there’s a definite lack of operators willing to send from the continent recently. Some American vendors will import but from personal experience, whenever I buy any supplements from across the pond I get landed with a hefty custom duty which seems grossly out proportion to the original price of the product

Any ideas my fellow Brits? Thanks 😊

I found vitacost will send it last time I tried. Usually they won’t let you buy it in NZ. My normal supplier has refused to send it now. I think vitacost slipped up.Try all the various brands and sizes as sometimes they miss one.

I've been buying from Piping Rock - quoted sterling price includes import duty and tax, only the shipping is extra. So far they've been brilliant. I hope they are able to continue supplying us here in the UK.

I use Piping Rock and so far have had no problems and a quick delivery of approx 10 days from giving them the order :)

I bought something from piping rock once and it was off. They said they would refund it it and never did. But maybe it was the type of compound. I haven’t tried them since.

I just found an article that says it is available but as a prescription so is that not possible? ukmeds.co.uk/blog/why-is-me...
