Help purchasing cheap medication
Comments

I know about fake medicines because I have a friend who works for the Medicines & Healthcare Regulatory Authority that's why I would never buy medicine of any kind off the internet.0

Not necessarily of help now of for the OPs medicines but when I am in countries with half decent medicines licencing I often buy medicines over the counter. Greece is very good for Ventolin cheaply (Salbutamol but it is nearly always Ventolin branded) and italy was very good for mefenamic acid - also very cheap (branded ponstan when not prescribed generically but it was the generic one that i bought in italy)
Always buy from proper pharmacies and you should be OK in the EU (especially if you are buying branded goods) and America (although their licencing is often stricter than ours despite being able to buy bottles of 1000 paracetamol off a shelf)
I agree with other posters, I wouldn't buy any 'critical' or potentially dangerous medicines over the internet.£34,547 (Dec 07); Current debt: £zilch (Debt free December 2010)

Do you get any benefits? if so you may actually be entitled to an exemption certificate in anye vent. I work for the nHS so can advise what benefits qualify for free scripts etc. Post on here if you get any benefits and if so what they are.
