Ruperts Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Doxycycline is prescription only in the UK, so i'm wondering about the legalities of getting some shipped over from Thailand. I can't be bothered with the rigmorole of going to see a doctor. So if I ask my friend to put some in a box and head on down to the post office, could there be trouble ahead, or just moonlight and music etc etc??

I would of thought you could conceal them somehow, maybe in some condoms. You know the things you wear to stop you getting the problem you have that requires you to take doycycline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just buy it at your local Boots or Watsons. 10 100mg pills for 90 baht. No prescription. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks but I'm actually in the UK at the moment, I am hoping to have some sent over from Thailand to save the hassle of going to a Doctor here in the UK. But as they're prescription only over here, I thought there may be a problem of some sort getting them through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sriracha john Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 International shipment of prescription drugs is illegal. You subject yourself and the shipper to prosecution, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluto_manibo Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Doxycycline is not so effective against certain strains of malaria anymore. The bacteria which it use to fight has become drug resistant as well in this part of the world....maybe not for "the drip"....I wouldn't know.

You subject yourself and the shipper to prosecution, Thanks, I guess I'll be heading to the Doctor then. I wonder if they'll be able to fit me in before Christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
