Hi I have recently moved here and would like to get my HRT patches.  I have been to the pharmacy in Sorbas and he says he needs a prescription or a phone call, I guess from a doctor.  I am not registered with any doctor but have an NEI number and am applying for residencia. In Almeria I was told I could get it over the counter, it just needed to be ordered. So I’m confused! Any thoughts or suggestions welcome. Thanks.

you could see a private doctor for a prescription but you will have to pay in full for the patches.  Are you over state pension age for medical registration or are you on private health insurance?

if you have insurance then you should be able to see a private doctor using it may need to read T & Cs for what cover you have but most medical should be covered.
