Highlights from this day
- underfill_uma — singapore handles personal quantities of prescription medicine under its own rules and i would not try to summarise them from memory 22:58
- VialBot — Purity check: no report on file for lot H-2814. Nothing logged either way. 23:11
- hydrate_hana — is anyone here avoiding summer shipping the way the australians do japanese insurance covered the diabetes indication and not the weight one as far as anyone here… 23:41
- hydrate_hana — generics being available and generics being right for your situation are different questions, and only one of them is a chat question, thats one data point 23:46
- hydrate_hana — slightly off topic but thailand and taiwan come up occasionally and we have almost no member reports from either, so i would not guess 23:50
korea is fast
customs inside asia, is it easier between neighbouring countries
no letter no charge

being closer to the manufacturing does not shorten customs. my parcels from three hours away took as long as ones from europe
slightly off topic but japan approved it a while back didnt it, what does it cost there
getting seen in korea was faster than any route a uk member described at the time we were both describing it
Purity check: no report on file for lot H-2814. Nothing logged either way.
singapore pricing, anyone able to put a number on it
figures are from last year
a member in hong kong and a member in singapore compared the same dose and came out about forty percent apart
avoid august
singapore customs, is a personal quantity fine
are the indian products the same compounds or something else entirely
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
the carrier matters

approval isnt cheap
slightly off topic but transit inside the region ran 7 days for me, which was not faster than a longer route with a better carrier
diabetes indication only
language with a local pharmacy went better once i brought the compound name written down. spoken, it never worked once, i think
factory_direct_fii keep the compound name and the dose written in the local language in my phone and it…
is anyone here avoiding summer shipping the way the australians do
japanese insurance covered the diabetes indication and not the weight one as far as anyone here could establish a year ago
a parcel of mine was held inside the region and released after 6 days with no letter and no charge
