09 October 2008 mr iyer the courier person will take the consignment but they will not able to assure u whether they can give the consignment. first and foremost the end user has to give the certificate to you and the customs stating why he require the medicine and why the medicine is not available in his country the certificate has to be given by reputed licence doctor frankly speaking it si diffiult to send the medicine i had experienced it
