Pharmacy medication delivery to Australia

[Aus Paul]

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here and would like to introduce myself.

Secondly, I suffer from serious genuine chronic lower back pain. I've had multiple surgery (1 an artificial disc repplacement) with no success, plus I have 1 disc with an annular tear, 2 bulging discs, and multiple facet joint arthritis in my lumbar spine.

The Doctors cut off my pain medication years ago and I just can't function with out it, let alone the constant unbearable pain.

I can't order tablets over the net because Aust customs X-Ray everything and get them everytime.

I'm wondering if they would pick up Durogesic patches (probably would)?

If there is anyone out there from Australia who could give me some advice that would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Paul

I heard they're a little bit wary about medications shipped to Australia from the US, but now they are wary about shipped medicine from everywhere.

Best bet is to get it from a pharmacy with a doctor's prescription. Since you mentioned that your doctor cut off your pain medication years ago, I am assuming they don't see the need for you to take such medications and that you may manage the pain with non-pharmacological means. Otherwise, if you're still in great pain, you have to tell your doctor.
