Does anyone have success importing Rapamycin to Canada?

As I was able to use Mark’s Marine pharmacy in Canada to import rapamycin from a different country to the United states, they might be able to help you with getting it in Canada.

Quick update. They succeeded in delivering to a U.S. address.

I just had my last shipment from Blue Crystal seized. My agreement with them was paying 50% to have it replaced. Having it sent to a different address this time. I probably placed too many orders in a short period of time and got flagged.

How about going on a holiday to Europe and grabbing some low-cost branded Rapamune that could last for a couple of years?

I’ve got a couple years worth now and if the replacement shipment gets through it will be another few years worth. Stretched with grapefruit that is. I haven’t heard that it’s that easy to just grab in Europe though. A trip to India is not in the cards for a while yet, either.

Updating a previous post I made on this topic. I used Oddway International based out of India to ship into Canada. I had to wire the money up front which was a bit of a gamble but I received the product. I recently re-ordered from Oddway again but the package was held by customs. I’m not expecting it to be released. When I contacted Oddway, they said they would re-ship it without charge. They did and it arrived today. Great service. They send it by EMS speedpost (not courier) with a label stating “Health Care Products for Personal Use.”

An update to my update. Interestingly, the orginal rapa shipment cleared customs (after 4 months) and was delivered to me. The package was marked as opened by customs, so I’m surprised they still delivered it given Canadians are not permitted to import prescription drugs.

I used Forvida India from Indiamart.
210 tablets for $215 USD shipped (Zydus).
Delivered within 3 weeks to a Canadian address.

I’m still undecided on whether to take them or not, or have them analyzed first. Any comments on the appearance/size of the tablet below is appreciated (tablet has a shine to it, stamped with 351)

Many thanks!

It’s unlikely they’re fake if they’re in a blister, and for this drug.

They are fine - they look exactly like the ones I’ve been taking for the past three years. And like the ones that a friend here had tested as shown here: Rapamycin / Sirolimus from India, Lab Test Report on Quality / Purity

I second that opinion!!
I ordered 100 Rapacan (1mg) from Kachhela medex (India Mart). No issues with the supplier but the package could not go through customs (twice) see the attached


letter I received from Canada customs. Any recommendations how to get through Canada Customs.

June from what I gather its a crap shoot , I got my first and only supply as noted above shipped to US then I brought home , I will have to throw the dice at some point here
I order stuff from the US periodically in the past if the order was under 100 it came through , but lately it seems a majority of orders under that 100 come with a bill for taxes etc . I don’t know if there is a new policy or whether a lot of agents that are scrutinizing more .
I’d like to know the odds of a pkg making it into our fine buttoned up country
Did the supplier send twice ?
what will you do now ?

Larry,
the first time Can. Customs sent it back to the sender (Kachhela) and they sent it second time and same thing happened again. That whole process from initiating the purchase to it being sent back and forth has been going on for almost a year. Just so frustrating.
My husband is travelling to Eastern Europe and will bring back a year’s supply, can get only Pfizer Sirolimus and it is more expensive but no issues with Customs.

I’ve received a couple of shipments of raw rapamycin powder from Wuhan Labs with no issues. I’m not sure if I was just lucky or the labeling made a difference. Of course the raw powder needs to be mixed with something like lactose powder and encapsulated (I use enteric coated ones).

“from Wuhan Labs” Really? Holy, bat cave! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I used Kachhela medex (I live in Vancouver).

My order failed to get through customs too.

Kachhela medex offered to refund my money, but I elected instead to have then try again but this time ship to to U.S.

I traveled to the U.S. and brought the package back myself.

So the bad news is they don’t seem to have success shipping to Canada, but good news is that they reshipped the pills without extra charge and they offered to refund my money.
