July 18, 20223 yr Hi all,running out of my prescribed meds from the Uk. I know i can get them here but like everything else now the meds are quite pricey. Like a lot of old codgers over here i usually save a stash back in Blighty and pick them up yearly to bring back here. Now i am not going back in the near future and want to know the pros and cons about mailing my stash here. Any help would be appreciated,cheers.
July 18, 20223 yr Nothing whatsovere to do with immigration. But indeed, by law it requires an FDA livense to import phar,maceuticals by mail and customs may seize them. in practice, provided (1) sent by regular post (never a courier) and (2) small in quantity. customs often lest them through. Of course this means you'd likely have to split it into several mailings and the added postage may offset savings vs buying here, especially if there are inexpensive locally made generics. Also, while experience to date is that small amounts sent by regular post usually get through, there is no guarantee.
