seeking info from anyone who needs to take prescription medication on a regular basis
I'm seeking info from anyone who needs to take prescription medication on a regular basis, and how they manage outside Europe to obtain the drugs they need.
My own situation is a little different from most, but not unique I'm sure. I underwent surgery in 2003 for liver cancer and had a transplant. I have to take immunosupressant drugs for the rest of my life, along with a cocktail of other stuff to keep everything in balance.
The problem is these drugs are very expensive, and although I get them on prescription, I can only get up to two months supply at a time, which rather limits my horizons as far as travel is concerned, as I'm not sure I'd be able to buy (or even find) what I need in more remote areas.
So this is my question, does anyone have experience of obtaining sophisticated prescription drugs outside the European environment?, or is there any procedure I can go through here ( UK) to get prescriptions that are perhaps valid elsewhere? I know that's a long shot but future plans are rather dependant on me being able to overcome this issue.
Thanks in advance.
