Hallo friends,

Does anyone know a way to buy drugs directly from India ? I have a patient spending 20k monthly on drugs which would come down to below 10k if bought from India directly.

I know most patients who have done kidney transplants usually get their drugs directly from India but I don't have a contact who can guide me on the modalities.

Any help out here ?

I am so sorry for your patients.

Please if you are near those sides of town, walk directly in these hospitals and ask from the reception to be allowed to see any oncologist; Karen,Mater,Aga Khan,Nairobi,MP Shah, KNH...

I wish your patient a quick recovery.

NO.

Oncology = The study and treatment of tumors

Thanks but it's not a cancer patient. It's a heart condition for an elderly patient who can't undergo an operation coz of the advanced age.

The patient is actually at home but requires a dose that costs circa 20k per month. Am looking for someone who knows how kidney transplant patients do it. They all source from india and save around 20k per month.

Have asked from pharmacists and they all pretend they don't know for obvious reasons.

Most of these drugs sourced form India in the manner asked above are usually for cancer patients, 80% most of the time.
The Oncologist will surely give you a direction on the kidney drugs...these are all called chronic diseases.

If you havent get my point, I can elaborate.

@from2011 get in touch with Kenya High Commission in Delhi and ask for Mr. Baya who is the Consular officer there. Guess he'd be in a position to help you may find the contacts from the embassy website.

Has anyone seen "Shypmate"? It's a brilliant Idea!!

Introducing Shypmate

I would rather suggest PiggyBee (Pioneer in peer to peer delivery since 2012, community based, global and free)
