OTC? in the US? how much is it at the pharmacy though?

 

[Krazykat]

search for it all sorts of places do it mail order.

 

[ripper2]

yeah there are a lot of places that you can order it from but is it for "research" or is it for actual human consumption ala OTC from a legit pharamacy?

 

[Krazykat]

i`ve just seen from mail order supplement companies, well one at least.
