Title: unbranded lidocane?
Post by: victorc on April 02, 2011, 12:01:32 AM

Hi Sarah, I noticed the new branded lidocane can no longer be shipped to Canada. What happened to the unbranded lidocane product that was previously available?

It got sold out. It is so difficult to import numbing cream that even the Chinese stopped doing it. Codex Alimentarius..

Everything gets confiscated by customs to prevent the import of cheap generic products. Even 750 tubes of A-Ret were confiscated as we tried importing them into the EU.

Wow, sorry to hear that. Governments in action I suppose.  That's really too bad but I guess the drug/pharma lobby have to keep their pay somehow.

Yes. We are looking into these problems (also with our A-Ret). I think we need to partner with someone in India to get a reliable, cheap supply of pharmacy-purchased creams.
