Been reading these topics about testosterone. Does anyone know if testosterone cypionate is still “otc” in taiwan? I am currently in Taichung and I am not having much luck regarding obtaining this. Until now, all pharmacists redirect me to the clinics/hospitals. Is it just a matter of trying more pharmacies or have the regulations tightened over the past few years?
(random question: does anyone know where I can find the rules regarding pm’ing? I can’t find the pm button to contact someone directly. Or is this being caused by me being a new member?)
It seems a lot of people have this question. Testosterone is not OTC in Taiwan, you need a prescription. However, like many drugs that need a prescription, some pharmacies will sell it to you without it. They usually don’t mind unless it’s a strictly controlled drug like Xanax. From what I understand from a pharmacist I asked, they are really only checked for those strictly controlled drugs. They can however get in trouble for selling you something without a script if you need it in theory, but it seems it’s not really enforced and understood that it happens in Taiwan.
