DHEA in italy

Hi everyone

I'm off to italy for a couple of days relaxation before I start my 5th cycle. I'm just wondering if I'm allowed to take DHEA into the country? I would rather take it with me so there is no break in my supplements. I plan to take a copy of my private prescription with me just in case it's an issue.

Any thoughts.

I would think that if you're taking it along with your private prescription it should be fine. Perhaps see if you can find contact details for a local hospital / GP for overseas people (holiday goers) they may be able to tell you if you'll have any problems. You don't want to get to arrivals to find that they won't let you through unless you binned it; it's expensive stuff.

Let us know what you find out x

Hi Anisha. Oroviding you have to prescroption copy and a letter from your specialist to be on the safe side, you should be OK. Enjoy your short break. Diane

I've recently just been there and back for a few days. I took a few capsules (just the amount I needed) and put in my hand luggage. IT was fine.
