Question: Shipping medication from Canada to México

A friend of the family urgently needs some medication shipped from Canada to México.

The son of a friend of our family is in the hospital, and from what I have heard, there is a possibility of him dying.

Someone at the hospital in México told him that a drug called Nitoman could greatly help the kid. He even gave the family the prescription.

The problem is that "Nitoman" is only available in Canada. In Mexico it hasn't yet been approved.

How can this family get a hold of this medicine? Is there a chance to get this drug shipped to México?

It's available by prescription from this online pharmacy which ships internationally. Probably others as well

Neiltupper,

thanks for your reply. I will give this website a look. Other online pharmacies I found would ship internationally but required a prescription from a licensed canadian doctor.

If you can buy it in Canada, bringing it into Mexico shouldn't be a problem. Mexican customs are lax, and won't question moderate amounts of pills that you're ostensibly bringing in for your own use, as long as they're not narcotics. I've never been asked for a prescription. So if you can get someone to bring them to Mexico, that's probably the easiest. I don't know how you'd get them in Canada, though. Maybe fax the Mexican prescription up to a Canadian doctor you know who would be sympathetic?
