Hey, recently my order of ivermectin and a couple other things from India was confiscated at the US border. They sent a form letter saying blah blah you can’t do that and if you do it again you “could be prosecuted” etc. has anyone had this happen before? The company says they will reship for free but it makes me just a bit nervous. It’s a small order so obviously not worth the time of the govt to actually prosecute but still.

I’ve never had that. Even at the height of the pandemic.
Yeah it seems to be rare, like they just pick a few packages at random to inspect. I’ve ordered a few times before without issue
I’ve had it happen years ago ! Was sent a letter as well , never got a replacement . I live in San Diego , so I just go to Mexico, I was just being lazy back then!
Driving it over the border would make me more nervous lol
It’s legal , border patrol doesn’t trip about antibiotics , but when I’bring massive amounts of ivermectin , ive come back with 50 boxes at a time during the plan Demic, my pharmacist friend punches out of foil throws boxes away and I stash on my body ! Even if pulled in secondary I’m American they aren’t going to strip search me unless drugs ( fentinal etc . were found in my car . Honestly the drug smuggling is a scam. The cartels snitch on a small amount coming across with mulas ( runners) that they hired to run across. While border patrol is busy busting the car with a small amount in tires etc the big shipment is waved through . Unfortunately they know which patrol booth/line to get into . Just like prisons ( bad gaurds /cops ) there are BP who are on the take.
USED to walk over the bridge into Mexico, and load up on Amoxicillin. Load up as in 20+ bottles for me, 5 bottles of an anti-fungal, and a bunch of burn ointment. If kept in the basement, it lasts decades.
Back then it was like 2 bottles with 100 capsules each 2-pack for $10. I had a plastic bag fun, and so did my wife. Pass them out to family, as needed. Customs looked at the bags and waved us through.
Nuevo Progreso - and Dental services there had US Senior Citizens lined up on the street. State of the art offices, US Trained Dentists, and $10 for a set of X-rays, anesthetic was like $5, you kept your dental records. This was a few years ago, but what a difference it made.
