Resolution of the Collegiate Board No. 81, of ANVISA, allows the importation of medicines, including those not registered in Brazil, for personal consumption and with medical prescription, for any person resident in Brazil.

Every individual can import medications for his or her own treatment, or from his or her dependents.

Imports under $10,000 are tax-exempt.

No. There is a restriction regarding controlled medications (Retained Prescription), therefore, the individual (patient) can import drugs registered or not in ANVISA, under medical prescription, for use and consumption.

The medicines are transported by international logistics operators by air transport.

The medicines are packaged as needed. There are medicines that are necessary packaging to maintain the temperature. We use the right packaging to safeguard the quality and effectiveness of the products.

Every medicine that requires refrigeration is transported with certified packaging that keeps the medicine within the appropriate temperature range throughout the journey. In addition, they are accompanied by a temperature monitor that proves that the load has been at the appropriate temperature throughout the trip.
