In reply to is it legal to import meds?, posted by inanimate peanut on July 8, 2010, at 15:51:54
Isn't that a deadly combination?
> I just got a notice from the post office that my package from Hong Kong is in and that I have to come down to pick it up. Now I'm paranoid. I imported what would probably be sufficient as a 100mg dose over 6 weeks but it's in 100-10mg tablet boxes so it looks like ALOT of pills. I know someone on here said it's legal for my doc to import meds and it would probably be legal for me to do so with a prescription, but that's my whole problem is that my doc won't let me combine nortriptyline with Parnate so I've had to get it on my own. Is it legal for me to do this without a prescription or a medical license? I can't pick it up until tomorrow, so I have all night to be nervous about it. If it were going to be stopped at customs, wouldn't they have done that before it got to my local post office? Or maybe they let it through and are going to make me show a prescription or some sort of license to pick it up tomorrow. This sucks. I can't find a doc who will prescribe the two together, and it's not fair to me to have to live with continuous depression because my doc is unwilling to do something that the journals say is safe and effective. I am so mad. It's not that I like self-medication. I would far rather do this under the care of my doc, but she flat out will not do it. I have tried every other drug combo that was reasonable to try first. I really think nortriptyline could help me. This sucks so much.
