Hi everyone,
my husband and I are looking to move to Kuwait, I have a thyroid problem and am on permanent meds, I was wondering how easy it is to get my prescription transferred and filled in Kuwait?
I would really appreciate any help on this. Thanks in advance!!

Spoke to someone I know who has thyroid medication and she said Levo-T4? can be bought over the counter here and it is cheap... hope this helps, most things can be bought over the counter here and way cheaper than UK.

No problem, they also said that if you ever want to try something different after doing some research just tell the doctor and most will prescribe it for you..... seems a good system to me
