international meds need to be picked carefully. the u.s. government, no doubt wants to make their money, but at the same time they want to keep you safe. not to mention the fact that a lot of the drugs on the market today  are only there to counteract the side affects of the drugs that you are already taking. if you are comfortable taking foreign drugs, then i believe you should be able to. at the same time though, do you really need these drugs?

No, it's not ok to send a prescription which the doctor prescribed for you to another friend.  The medicine is only for the person for whom it was prescribed.  It even says so on the prescription bottle.  Read it.

Yes it is. They don't know whether your prescription is true or false. While they have unscrupulous doctors who write prescriptions for them you pay much more than you would at the chemist. At worst, they put you on a "sucker list" to receive spam between now and forever and you don't get your pills. Either way, you are better off seeing your pharmacist.

There are no prescriptions required for any legal pharmaceuticals in Mexico.  You can walk into a drugstore and ask for just about anything and get it.

If you mean prescriptions, then yes it may be cheaper on the internet but you can't be sure what it actually is you have got, anyone can stick pills in a bottle and label them.\n\nWould you really want to take the risk just to save a bit of money?

Yes it is illegal in the USA.  However, it can be done.  The person I know who's done it has never had a problem with the medications (in this case from India), and never had a problem with Customs or the Postal Inspector, etc.  \n\nI would not recommend it for drugs needed to treat serious life threatening conditions, because the quality is supposedly questionable.  But for other drugs I would do it if I didn't live so close to Mexico (where I can just go over the border and buy cheap prescription meds).\n\nIf you do a google search on the drug name that you need, you will most likely find an overseas site which offers it for sale.\n\nGood luck, but remember it's illegal and potentially dangerous to your health.

-You should, for one, have a better relationship with your doctor! He needs to take the time to answer all of your questions and concerns and give you detailed information about the drug he is prescribing you.\n\n-Pharmacies offer consultations about all medicines, speak directly to the pharmacist and ask as many questions as you need to have a full understanding of the medicine and its effects.\n\n-YAHOO! HEALTH is a very informative website, with a drug guide that offers detailed information about prescription and over-the-counter medicines:\n\nhttp://health.yahoo.com/drug/;_ylt=Ak_M.OVhMw4E.WKM3NAtB0Sz5xcB

A lot of the pharmaceutical companies are offering their medicines now at little to no cost directly to the patients exactly for this reason.  Find out who the manufacturer is for the drug and find out if you are a candidate for this program before you go across borders to get your meds.

The last answer was absolutely right.  Legally, you cannot buy a contact lens without a prescription.  Contact lenses are medical devices that must be fit by an eye doctor, even if you've worn them before.  There is a reason that the prescription expires and that is essentially to make you see your eye doctor (so he/she can make sure that the contacts aren't damaging your eyes).

It only ever costs me $10 USD to visit the Dr. and Another (Up To) $20 USD for a prescription.  So no more than a max of $30.

EU countries regulate their own pharmaceutical dispensing and regulations vary widely from country to country. The best idea would be to pick a country and contact the embassy from that country. Each embassy will have a person who can easily answer that question or will be willing to find out the answer for you.

Yes, I once ordered it online when I couldn't get to my doctor.  It was the real thing and I had no problem with the delivery.  It is best to order it from a US based pharmacy (if you live in the United States) as overseas can take a month or more to arrive, and there is always the possibility of it being confiscated by customs.  That doesn't mean you would be prosecuted or anything, just that you wouldn't receive it after having paid.  It is legal in the U.S. because of the 'complimentary, online consultation'.  That's how they get around it.  But there are a few states that don't allow you to receive it - Kentucky is one, plus a couple of others.   Also, almost all of them only allow Visa as a form of payment.

you can get it in the united states if you have a valid prescription from a liscenced pain management specialist ( doctor )..\n\nPain Management Specialists have the ability to prescribe class ll pharmeceuticals and narcotics, not every doctor can prescribe these medications..\nand good luck finding one who will actually prescribe Marinol for pain..
