Order from Overseas with Prescription

[toologic]

If I have a prescription and order from India , is the box marked in some way so that it will go thru customs w/o a problem? With goodrx its about 650 for 2 months and 50 in india but I also need the delivery to be somewhat reliable.

You are in luck! Delivery from India is exactly what you are looking for, somewhat reliable. The vast majority of packages go through without issue; there are just too many of them for customs to check. Your prescription, on the other hand, is worth exactly the paper its written on in this case. It is not valid for drugs of questionable quality from India.

India is indeed the “global pharmacy”. That said it also has a huge counterfeit drug issue.

Yes but does having a script get noted on the paperwork so that it gets thru customs w/o seizure or less scrutiny.

No customs declarations have nothing to do with prescriptions.

I’d be surprised if the custom declaration documents are even truthful tbh

To answer what I think is your implied question, op

Having a valid prescription from a doctor does not automatically make it legal to import a prescription drug from a foreign pharmacy.

If you reside in the US and it gets seized don’t expect anything to happen except a notice to arrive in the mail from customs. These forms notify you of the seizure, and generally request a signature to acknowledge that you mail back to them. Just throw out the notice nothing ever happens.

Although the script does you no good for customs.. I have only had 1 out of 6 seized and I am on the high end of lucky.. (unlucky)

I have heard average is closer to 1-5%

With those savings you can afford 1-2 seizures just don't buy too much at one time.

As for quality, I have used the blood pressure meds for a year now and they seem to work as intended, they were also prescribed but India was a better option.
