a member in tokyo reported an out of pocket cost in the region of twenty thousand yen a month in 2024, at a clinic

BB

the indian landscape is qualitatively different from research supply, it is a licensed pharmaceutical industry, and that is still not a guarantee about the vial you received

SS

ok so is japan expensive because of the approval or in spite of it

TT

quick one korea has a clinic culture where this is straightforward to obtain, and members reported that as both a convenience and a concern, anyway

SS

hong kong members reported both clinic and pharmacy routes and a wide price range between the two

TT

as of about a year ago korea had the shortest path from deciding to starting of anywhere members here had described

SS

is the korean clinic route cheaper than a pharmacy elsewhere

sourcing is physically closer here, why is it not simpler

TT

customs between asian countries has not been noticeably easier in anything members have reported. each border is its own border

EA

nobody here can tell you what will clear customs where you are and that is enforced in this channel

approval isnt cheap

sorry to jump in update from 1 months ago: availability in the region is broadly the same and the prices i track are slightly higher

HH

follow up transit inside the region ran 11 days for me, which was not faster than a longer route with a better carrier

i keep the compound name and the dose written in the local language in my phone and it has been more useful than any app

BB

a parcel of mine was held inside the region and released after 24 days with no letter and no charge

HH

language with a local pharmacy went better once i brought the compound name written down. spoken, it never worked once, thats just me

japan being expensive despite the approval is the pattern. approval sets the licence and the pricing system sets the price

thailand and taiwan come up occasionally and we have almost no member reports from either, so i would not guess
