Crossing the border to visit a pharm

[sparetire]

Just wondering on what experiences you guys have had with buying prescription medicines over the border?

My wife and I are heading down to the yuma, az border this weekend for the first time to buy a few things. I have done some research on the web and found that most places say that if you buy 3 months of non-controlled or controlled substances, the officials will look the other way. I was thinking about picking up a month supply of somas, antibiotics and maybe some t-3s (yes i know - the perfect bbr's bandaid kit for beat up - broke ass muscles! ) while the wife was thinking about picking up phentermine.

Is it easy as just walking into a pharmacia and asking for what you want and then declaring it at the border and walking back across? (This is what everyone is telling me at work).

I'm curious to what the popular census will be And no, i'm not keestering any 10ml vials or amps of gear! lol..

 

[cboogsrun]

good luck. It sounds like they pulled all gear off of the shelves down south. You talk about it with guys at work? Wow, your one trusting dude. Do a search for mex gear over the last month you should find something about all the companies closing shop.

BOOGS

no no..i'm NOT talking about gear..just reg. medicines like the ones that I described.. I can't imagine buying gear from mexico when i have the best domestic source!

If you do declare it the will seize it and then threaten to press charges at a later date. Also the will tell you to never croos the boarder here again. I know from experience form living in AZ and traveling there many times with friends who try to bring back shit like somas of valium or even juice. They will take all your info and may even do the whole strip search holding cell thing depending what you got, but they will not let you cross with shit like that. Now if you have a real script from an American doctor bring it along and show that and you'll be fine.

U.S. residents entering the United States at international land borders, who are carrying a validly obtained controlled substance (other than narcotics such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or LSD), are subject to certain additional requirements. If a U.S. resident wants to bring in a controlled substance (other than narcotics such as marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or LSD) but does not have a prescription for the substance issued by a U.S.-licensed practitioner (e.g., physician, dentist, etc.) who is registered with, and authorized by, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to prescribe the medication, the individual may not import more than 50 dosage units of the medication into the United States. If the U.S. resident has a prescription for the controlled substance issued by a DEA registrant, more than 50 dosage units may be imported by that person, provided all other legal requirements are met.


Please note that only medications that can be legally prescribed in the United States may be imported for personal use. Be aware that possession of certain substances may also violate state laws. As a general rule, the FDA does not allow the importation of prescription drugs that were purchased outside the United States. Please see their Website for information about the enforcement policy for personal use quantities.


Conflicting info! I figured on some medications a person will be required to have a prescription, but everyone that I talk to or have talked to states they do it all the time and declare away and no one does anything.. According to the dea website you are allowed to bring back a total of 50 per item. But then again, I found a pharmacy that will ship it back to me lol. oh well.. sounded like a good idea at first

Last Saturday afternoon there were over 2000 people waiting in line to cross back over into the US from Algondones, MX. 90% of them were bringing back medicine. The other 10% were pretenting they weren't. The shelves are still stocked with gear, although prices are up due to the vet lab owners being busted. Vet stuff is available but harder to find unless you have connections. (I don't) If you declare any controlled substance at Customs you will likely be hassled or arrested, or both. If you are bringing back Amoxicillin, the Customs guys could care less. If you're bringing back 10 boxes of Sostenon redi-jects and 10ml of Doggy Deca, tell the guy at the Customs counter if you like sleeping on concrete and wearing clothes with numbers on them. The funny thing is I've seen a young pumped dude get hassled who had nothing, then watched a 70 year old lady who I saw buy Oxycontin walk thru with out a blink. Just don't seem right, the bitch is a drug smuggler and gets a discount at Denny's.....

about 5 yrs ago went to loredo and got mexican script and claimed diet pills and xanax and had no problems as long as bottles are sealed. i met a dr. at the gym who hooked me up with gear. it was funny he was asking me how to dose it. my mother who is cool went also and she carried my gear across no problem.

True dat. You need an RX to bring it back. I used to take a trip to Nogales every week to take my injections and return to the US. I got searched every time. If you look around you can get a Mexican Dr to write you an RX, but I don't think you'll be allowed to bring product across. Don't even fuck around. It's not the USA you need to worry about. The federales can lock you up for whatever they want anyway. Why give them a reason to? IMNSHO you're risking the welfare of your family by even considering this. And whatever you do, don't bring a gun or ammo into Mexico-it's like a 15 year sentence. And in case you didn't know it already, mexican jails make San Quentin look like The Ramada. No toilets-you shit in a hole in the ground. No toilet paper either-unless your family pays a guard to give you some. No beds, just a blanket. You're also not guaranteed any certain amount of food or water.

Why do people go to mexico and stock up on antibiotics? Thats crazy - all you are doing is creating super germs that could kill your children. I personally know someone who's antibiotic abuse led to their child getting antibiotic resistant strep which led to meningitis.

If you actually need antibiotics a doctor will give them to you.

 

[bierstube]

I would never try it, especially with all the shake downs that have been happening. If you do, hope you got a great lawyer...

Because of the price.

what happens if one should get a doctor over there to write a prescription and stamp it for legitimacy?

Bro I live in Arizona! Let me give you some advice. I wouldn't recommend that you bring any prescrption drugs across the border at this time! It has been pretty crazy these last few months and it seems that customs is cracking down a little harder than usual. But if you are going to try it don't declare anything!!!! Stash that shit and stash it well!!

It isn't funny, it is actually sad! Med students today are not taught the benefits or proper uses of AAS and related drugs, they are only taught the negatives. And I find it ironic that doctors without knowledge of the subject are called upon to testify in court or they are interviewed on TV talking about the ngatives of steroid use when some of them couldn't tell you the definition of an androgen! As a med student I get frustrated at times with all of the politics involved in the med school curriculum and what we are taught which in some cases has no factual evidence backing it whatsoever. AAHH!

 

[B i C e P HeAD]

I just got alot of info on this myself. I live in Az, and my friends bring back somas and valiums everytime they go. def do not declare anything. If ur american u can bring ur american scripts down there to get filled (90) day supply, or if u dont have scripts a mexican doc will write one for what ever u need/want. You have to pay them though. If you do pay a mexican doc to write u a script u still cant declare it when u come back. Right now im looking into when i go down there, to having whatever i pick up mailed back to the states. Po box style that is

 

[ego boner]

HAVE FUN STORMIN THE CASTLE!!! do you think it'll work? It will take a miracle.

 

[BigCracker]

Very true. Drugs like Amoxycillin can cost more that $2.50/pill here in the USA. Down South they're closer to .50/pill. Or you can just buy fish meds from Petsmart for about the same price-its the exact same shit. RX companies sell their broken/imperfect pills to companies that re-tab them for use on pets without FDA approval. Sorry for the thread jack, but a lot of bros w/o insurance can save serious $$$ by doing this.

I talk to those ole' ladies at work all the time and they tell me that they do this everytime. if they don't have a script for something, the mexican doctor will write out a script for the medicine, usually they have doctors working in the parms, and then when you walk across the border, if they ask, you show them the script and the meds. Believe me, i'd love to stash the meds, but where do I put them other than a body cavity! Plus, if I stash the meds -then they want to search me, then i'm even more screwed! If anyone else has any other thoughts or experiences in doing this, let me know. I might chicken out before saturday if it's negative enuff..

 

[cat_fish]

Has to have a script from a "U.S.-licensed practitioner (e.g., physician, dentist, etc.) who is registered with, and authorized by, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to prescribe the medication."

I dont think the DEA cares what kind of stamp a Mexican Doc has.

 

[sparetire]

Alright, I guess you guys are right. I went over to drugbuyers to find the whole scoop on peoples personal experiences with traveling to mexico and bringing back controlled substances. Here's the deal:

If and when you are in mexico pharms, pay the extra 40$ for the script for the controlled substance. This way, it will cover your ass from the federales while in mexico, thus, avoiding la mordida! (the bite!).

If you succeeded past the first part, go back to the border and start your trek across it. Most likely, you won't get checked unless you look suspicious or stand out. If you are unfortunate enough to get checked by the mexican customs, that will only occur GOING INTO MEXICO. If you are standing at the fence ready to go through, you don't have to worry about going to a mexico jail, but since you are leaving, you will be checked GOING OUT by USA customs. UsA customs state you can have 1 controlled substance with a max of 50 pills. Nothing else that is controlled will be permitted. ;p And even then, it's up to the state discretion whether or not to charge you for possession of a controlled substance.

Mexican doctor's scripts are void at the USA border. Usa could care less about mexican doctors.

Here's the catch:

You can walk across and not declare the medication , as above people have mentioned, and take a chance. If you haven't been caught before, and if this is a low dosage, you'll be warn and your medicine will be confiscated, or you could go to jail (US jail that is).

You can take a prescription bottle that had previous medication in, (or u could just dump your current meds out) and have it refilled on the other side and just say that you brought it into mexico with you..blah blah blah.. most likely they won't do much coming back into the us.


Either way, after listening to everyone here and over at the other board, I have decided that it isn't worth the trip esp. when there are better ways of getting meds.. NROPS. lol.

Thanks for the input everyone..that's why i love elite

Someone might have said this but I would like to quickly sum up what the law says about mexico. Their written prescriptions are (only) good if mexico police stop you. They don't matter outside the U.S. except for maybe a certain few doctors who can write a perscription for either country. You will not face trouble or charges for declaring any drug upon leaving, but declaring your drugs will however get them taking from you if the are controlled drugs. i.e. pain killers or other good stuff. Don't think you are going to save money buying prescription drugs in mexico. Viagra is somewhere between $10-$15 a pill, lortab $5-$10 a pill. The drug companies are making it harder for us to just get stuff in mexico. I believe a lot of money is being spent or given to mexicos government by drug companies, to thwart americans from buying; but this is just a theory. Antibiotics are probaly a good bet in mexico but I seen nothing else worthy, besides it's a long trip. (I just got back) You will also need to find the mexican name of the pharmaceutical you are looking for. (don't expect to see familiar names or packages) Steroids are expensive business in pharmacies. Veterinarians are your best bet. human grade Deca goes for up to $15 for a 50mg shot. $14 for sustanon250 $9 for a mexican version of sustanon 250 which only contains 2 testosterones. It's noth the border you have to worry about but, texas if you go the route I did. read my other post and see why.
