Link to meds which can be imported to each country please.

Hi, I saw a link for the above in a thread on here recently. In fact, i think i used the same link for a reply i gave.

Only, despite trawling through replies and posts i can find nothing..... I cant find it in my bookmarks either. I really hope i am not imagining it. Eeek!

Can anyone help?

Thanks. G. X

Pretty much all medicines can be imported for personal use to the UK. (That is, for self and "household", however that is defined.) The exceptions are controlled drugs (on the various schedules) - including DHEA, morphine and quite a number of others, and (not sure where we are with this) some former legal-highs. There might, from time to time, be additional controls such as on beef products from countries with foot and mouth disease.

I do not have any details for other countries - except the classic illegality of desiccated thyroid in France.

Controlled Drug Schedules from our own UK governement:

Yes - I knew it wasn't THE site - but thought it might be of use to you or others.

LegitScript is a questionable organisation. Whilst it purports to be there to protect patients, it really seems to be trying to assert control over internet pharmacies.

Funnily enough, the link at the bottom of each page that looks to be going to legitscript.com actually goes to livepage.apple.com.
