Good morning. I received a prescription from a psychiatrist for the drug Rohypnol 1 mg In the pharmacy it turned out that it was not there. It is "unregistered" in Poland. I have been informed that there is a rather complicated procedure for importing this drug from Switzerland or Germany. Could I get information here on what to do next? I only have a prescription.

In the described situation, you should return to the doctor who issued the prescription with information that it cannot be filled due to the lack of valid marketing authorization of this drug in Poland. The prescription itself is insufficient to purchase the drug in this case. If the doctor maintains his therapeutic choice in this situation, he should - in addition to the prescription - also issue an appropriate demand for consent for target import. The details of the procedure are described below: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/import-docelowy-jak-sprowadzic-lek-z-zagranicy Indeed, Switzerland and Germany have registered preparations of flunitrazepam (the active ingredient in Rohypnol) - although it is only on the basis of databases that I find it difficult to confirm the actual availability, I think that the pharmacy could have given you accurate information about the possibility of purchase.
