Buying Drugs To Send Abroad

[catsrcool]

My mother in law is in Cameroon and needs Morphine patches to relieve her pain.
In an ideal scenario we need a supplier which can take orders online outside of the UK and ship direct to Cameroon.
Any suggestions please.

Could she not just go to a Doctor or a hospital for it?

[catsrcool]

Cameroon does not have a health service that fits the needs of the population. There are currently less than 1 qualified doctor for every 5200 people. The roads are mostly dirt tracks that become impassable after rain. Any good doctors have already left the country for better working conditions abroad. It is one of the worst countries for corruption. If I tried to drive my mother in law to the nearest hospital that is 120Km on un surfaced roads. I would be targeted by the police as I am white I would have to give them $100 just to carry on. The icing on the cake is that I have had 2 DVT's andI can not go there even if I wanted to. Even if the patient could get to hospital the cost of the drugs is more than her family income for a year. Just to put some of the above in perspective the average life expectancy of a woman in Cameroon is 53.5 years. My mother in law is 84!

Odds on the drugs would never reach you - If its that corrupt I`m sure parcels are examined for resale value.

The only way to send the drugs we have obtained so far is using DHL.

very sad state of affairs - so sad.

catsrcool - I just know that via my friends when they have to use morphine patches (perhaps allergic to them - I don't know) but they take Tramadol which has morphine in them. You could discuss with your doctor or pharmacist.

Tramadol will be very expensive in Cameroon and no GP in the UK is going to prescribe them for someone living abroad, not even a private prescription
