Flunarizine/FDA, customs crackdown   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #4750 of 7585 |
Hi everyone, I just called Mark's Pharmacy to refill Jocelyn's flunarizine rx
and the lady I spoke with said we had to write a letter (as well as Dr. Silver)
stating why we need flunarizine, how it helps Joce and that it's not available
in the USA. She said the FDA and customs are cracking down on people getting
meds from outside the US. Has anyone else written letters yet and did you have
any issues getting flunarizine after you sent your letters?

Also, the people getting it from Mexico - is it cheaper than getting it in
Canada?

Thanks, Heather, mom to Jocelyn, 7 1/2 yrs old
