| What happens when I need my medication for my illness when I move to Malta for
the winter months? I am thinking of moving to Malta for 6 months of the year (Sept-April) when I retire. I have Parkinsons and Atrial Fibleration and need drugs for it. What happens when I go abroad and I need the drugs? Does anyone know of a web-site that would help me? Or does anyone know if I can get my drugs when I am in Malta?

You shouldn't need to do anything other than let your home GP know. You'll need to get 6 months' prescription from him, if not the actual supply. Check if they have what you need in Malta and if they allow it to be sold there. This website might help - written for the Telegraph by an ex-pat livign in Malta: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/global/main.jhtml?xml=/global/mentors/malta3.xml#7 Make sure you take your NHS card with you too, and getting extra health insurance can't hurt; the AA are very good, they actually covered my AF in the Travel Insurance, which most companies wouldn't touch with a bargepole! Have fun! |

if you go to a local doctor ,with a medical history from your own doctor you will have no trouble getting a prescription filled i live in Malta and when my father stayed with us her for the last few years of his life he needed loads of different pills and had no trouble getting what he needed but be warned medicine can be pretty expensive her. i hope this helps and that you enjoy your stay greetings from Malta |
