Drug Running
Well, not quite!
A UK pharmacy local to my office has filled a prescription for a colleague in Bahrain and he's asked me to carry it over for him when I visit our Bahrain offices shortly.
I presume that the reason he has the order filled in the UK is that the prescription (which I have) is from a UK doctor. Cost may come into it too ... there's £1100 quid of drugs in a box half the size of a laptop!
Apparently other colleagues have made this "run" for him before without issue. Does this just count as a normal taxable import to Bahrain or am I on dodgy ground?
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks,
Duncan
Postscript: This may or may not be relevent.
My colleague has Parkinsons Disease and the drugs in question, Pramipexole (Mirapex), are used in the treatment of this disease.
