Getting non-prescription drugs in Spain
July 4, 2006 8:25 AM   Subscribe

How do I obtain non-prescription drugs/supplements that are unavailable in Spain? (e.g. Melatonin, Vicks Vaporub).

They are easy to get in the US, but they are unavailable in Spain. I tried several websites, but none of them was willing to ship them to Spain. I guess the easiest way is to ask someone who's coming to bring it with them, but I don't know anyone that's coming from the states anytime soon.

pharmacy2U delivers overseas from Britain, and drugstore.com ships to Spain from the US.

Response by poster: Drugstore.com gives me the following error:
We are sorry, but due to import restrictions we are unable to ship this product your country. Please remove this product from the cart.

Pharmacy2U doesn't have Melatonin, and might also give me the same type of problems.

Hmmm I only searched for vaporub, sorry. Agestop.co.uk says they deliver Melatonin internationally.

I'm really surprised Spain doesn't have Melatonin, I've been able to buy it OTC in many EU countries.

You could have a friend ship some to you.

Does Puritan's Pride ship overseas?

Amazon looks like they have it. (I don't know about shipping, but I can't see why they wouldn't.)
