medication and prescription drugs

Re: medication and prescription drugs
that type of med needs a script here and not from a normal GP but a psych. Go to IMH.

Re: medication and prescription drugs
I already have a prescription however it's a completely different manufacturer out here and way over priced so I am reaching out in the hope that someone from the UK might have some.

Your effort to illegally procure drugs has been reported to the mods. Get the hell out of Singapore before CNB knock on your door (I'm serious).amish8617 wrote:I didn't ask for your opinion and I have prescription thankyou very much.

Re: medication and prescription drugs
Hi there I think you are some what confused I am looking for somebody to help me find a pharmacy that stock my medication of which I have the prescription here from raffles. My only advice was to find somebody that might know of the correct manufacturer. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Re: medication and prescription drugs
the likelihood of finding someone to sell or give you 7 days worth of the exact rx medication you want (from the right manufacturer) is near impossible.
if you think that the medication you get from raffles (or any other registered hospital in singapore) is in anyway inferior to what you get in the UK, i suggest you think again.
7 days of being off and on your meds again is not worth it - pay through your teeth and suck them down.

Re: medication and prescription drugs
Hey there that's not what I am after I am wanting to find the same manufacturer as it's a worldwide manufacturer so I was hoping somebody who also takes it could advise which pharmacy is best to go to. A list of the biggest ones would be a good starting point as I can ring them and find out. Thanks guys

This one's backpedaling really hard, but it's too late.

Re: medication and prescription drugs
For the benefit of others wondering what the hell is going on:
1. OP claimed to have a script but offered no proof. (I have a script for Adderall - I just wrote it out). Even if OP had a script from the UK no Singapore pharmacy will fill it out.
2. Even when informed that these types of drugs (mind altering) are not available from a GP in Singapore but only from a specialist OP persisted to try to find someone to sell him a restricted, scheduled drug. When you're sold a scheduled restricted drug like Adderall or Prozac in Singapore the drug is for your personal consumption with a controlled dosage and if you come up short on the pills you're going to need a good reason for not having them. OP was not only putting himself in danger but anyone foolish enough to sell him the drugs.
3. Trade in Prozac etc is a serious problem in other countries by the mentally ill. The last thing we need is to encourage it here.
As an Australian I can't say it doesn't surprise me that a pommie is this bloody stupid but I did try to warn him off.
