If you know what tablets you need or could get someone to screenshot the box, you could ask at a chemist if they can prescribe them for you.

Have you been to a pharmacist in U.K. because according to the last topic, you may be able to get help if you can show your box or bottle with name and date on..........

Thank you everyone for your replies.as a friend has purchased my drugs, I am just looking for DHL address in the TRNC
Hubby and I are both ex aviation medical. I have emailed our past aviation medical doctor at Gatwick to see if he can help. He may be retired now as we have been in TRNC 20 years.. the local chemists cannot help without a prescription.
So any help re DHL much appreciated.

I tried to get a letter via DHL off the island 2 weeks ago. (I have used the service successfully in February)
Unfortunately they have stopped the service until further notice .

I believe that in the UK, any GP will treat/prescribe for a visitor to his district.
Go see a GP and ask !

I found a GP practice today who have helped, but after calling several practices and waiting in a queue for over 30 mins. Twice.
One practice who said they could not help suggested I went to a walk in clinic at Crawley hospital breaking all self isolating rules!
Finally the practice I thought night help, did, even though at first they said they could not. I was prescribed for 2 months for 2 different pills at 1 per day. Total cost £78.00.
Thank you to everyone for ideas. Simdi problem yok!

In reply to Keith,s message. UK GP practices will only help visitors if you intend to be resident for 6 months or more. Which I hope is not the case and I told the truth!
