Where to buy...? [Mega-thread for medical supply info]

Greetings,

Does anyone happen to know where one might actually source Proviron? ............ thanks!

If you're looking to pick up some meds, your best bet is to just hit up a local pharmacy and ask around. Just a heads-up, we don't allow any buying or selling of prescriptions here (it’s the same rule everywhere else, really), so I had to go ahead and edit that part out of the post.

I was thinking maybe some valerian root or a similar blend. The guys at the pharmacy are always swamped, and I don't really want to spend half an hour standing there waiting:
What’s a budget-friendly option near downtown? Thanks.🙂

Bagged tea is basically just flavored, dyed-up tea dust. From a nutritional standpoint, it’s absolute garbage...

Just buy some loose-leaf tea and let it steep for as long as you want.

Honestly, just grab some valerian root capsules and save yourself the headache. It’s much easier for me.

The capsules didn't do a thing for me—not the ones with valerian, and not the Persen either. Honestly, I only found relief with tea.🙂

In that case, you should probably just pick up some lemon balm tea; you only need to steep it for about 10 minutes 😁

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction regarding where I can pick up some Imodium here in the States? To be more specific, I'm currently based in San Francisco. Also, does anyone have much firsthand experience using this particular medication? Thanks so much!

You can find it in pretty much any pharmacy, even there in San Francisco. They might call it something like Seldiar depending on the brand, and you might need a prescription for certain versions... I haven't personally used it myself, but from what I've heard, it really does the trick...

I was just wondering if anyone knows if you can find lutein supplements available here in the States?
I haven't really noticed any at my local CVS or Walgreens lately, though I might have just missed them.

Thanks so much!

Look, I just grab mine at CVS. I go with the Lutein extra from Natural Resources.
That’s gotta be the stuff.🤷

Alright, I guess I'll go ahead and look into that again, thanks so much!

Are you thinking capsules or tablets?

You can find them in pretty much any pharmacy, whether they're sold on their own or bundled with vitamins. 🙂

I couldn't find an existing thread for this—if one already exists, please feel free to merge this one. 🤷

The title pretty much covers it.
I’m looking to get my hands on this "EpiPen" as soon as possible—my little one (only 18 months old) tested incredibly allergic to peanuts during a recent skin prick test.
Our pediatrician suggested we look abroad since it isn't available here in the States—they mentioned either picking one up in Mexico or trying to order it through a specialty pharmacy locally.
Apparently, there's about a month-long wait for those orders.
Since we live quite close to the border, I was wondering if anyone has purchased one in Mexico or perhaps further south, and if so, what did you end up paying?
The doctor estimated the cost would be around $220, noting that one dose lasts about a year.😲
Does anyone know of a more affordable option closer to home?

Anyone?

Something like this:



That second photo looks like it’s from the Oktal Pharme Facebook page... does anyone happen to know where they actually have their retail locations?

Any pharmacy working with Oktal Pharme can just order whatever they have sitting in their warehouse right now.
That’s not always the case if you're looking at something from a magazine like Your Health—they love to run ads for products that might not even be in stock at Oktal at the moment.

For instance, a place like CVS has a similar setup

So, I saw you guys talking about this vein supplement, and I’ve already wasted my afternoon calling a bunch of local pharmacies only to find out they don't carry it. Where on earth are people actually getting this stuff? Does anyone know if any shops in San Francisco actually have it in stock?

Look, you can just grab Hepan here—it’s got the exact same ingredients. It’s manufactured by Jadran. There's also Hepalpan, which is made by Galenika.

Wrong. They aren't even the same thing.
