Can unused Psycytric medcine be resold.

[Different]

Greetings,

 

    Recently my friend's brother passed away and his sister told me she found more than a year supply of psychiatric medicine called Invega, for schizophrenia patients.  She found out one box monthly supply would cost more than $100 because she could use that money instead of throwing it out or leave it to expire.  I checked for her with couple of pharmacies and they didn't seem interested or knowing where to go from there, In short that's gave me the idea to ask her for further information if it can be purchased in pharmacy stores or online and maybe in different country.

I wish I started my topic in right forum, and any helpful input would be greatly appreciated.

These medications can only be sold on prescription so pharmacies will not be interested.

 

In addition she would be breaking the law selling pharmaceuticals without a license.

 

Could try donating them to a psych hospital or try to get a refund on it from whatever hospital issued it to him.

Which country are you in and which country is the Invega in?

In many countries,  selling Invega as a private person would be illegal. 

In Thailand,  it is illegal to do so. 

 

If you find someone who has been prescribed Invega by his doctor but has to pay it out of pocket he might  buy it from you (if legal).

In some countries,  there is a market for this (ebay and so on). 

 

Selling Invega to a person who has not been prescribed Invega (like a neighbor who feels he could use it) is not only illegal,  it is dangerous and irresponsible.
