Is there any problem importing Medicine from India to the UK? I have some friends there and too many of my packages are being seized by USA customs. Is there a similar problem shipping to the UK? @John_Hemming
No problem at all. It is perfectly legal to import medicines for personal use.
Avoid using DHL though as they still demand to see a prescription, but the usual IndiaPost route works fine.
I’ve had a 100% success rate.

@RPS is mainly right.
There are controlled substances such as heroin and cocaine (and cannabis) that people are not allowed to import, but otherwise for personal use (including for immediate family) there are no limits.
I did have a problem once with a large import of melatonin that was for my own personal use, but was probably more than 3 months supply. Otherwise I have not had a problem.
There are, however, no regulations on import for personal use.

Same. I’ve had Rapamycin, melatonin and recently SGLT2i with no problems
