ARMOUR

[SKINNER99]

Can you please PM me with details on how to source Armour without prescription in the UK or where I can get a prescription?

Thanks,

You may have to see a doctor privately for a prescription for Armour, it won't be easy to get an NHS prescription as Armour is not licensed in the UK.

You won't be able to get Armour brand in the UK without a prescription.

I went to a private doctor and asked for Armour and she refused. She said even though she is a private doctor she has to follow NHS guidelines! What a waste of money spent on that appointment.

Also, I'm an American and was on Armour in the US and I know for a fact I am so much better on it. She didn't care.

This is the great British NHS we have, the envy of the world. In reality it sucks!

As for Armour, there are a few doctors who will prescribe it but they are few and far between, and if it is prescribed it has to be on a "named patient basis" and because it's unlicensed the doctor has to take personal responsibility, something many wont do.

There are a few who have prescribed Armour on the NHS.

There are also some private doctors listed who you could contact and ask if they are open to prescribing.

You could then ask on the forum for feedback by private message on any that you can travel to.

The only other alternative is non-prescription Thai NDT. You will need to ask on the forum about sourcing that, information has to be sent to you by private message.
