Optalidón supositorios help with my headaches, I normally buy them in Spain but during the pandemic I haven’t visited Spain, my supply has run out, is it possible to get these posted to me in the UK. Thank you

Hi Linda, I live in La Nucia, perhaps it is possible that I could pick some up for you and post to England. Do all the chemists sell them? I have no idea what the postage costs would be, my mum sent 2 pairs of sunglasses in a case and wrapped up in cardboard to my nanna in England and it cost 6.79€ to post (normal not registered). That was in the post office in Alfaz high street. I am quite happy to do this if it would help you.

Kind Regards Kristie

Hi Kirstie,

That is so kind of you, Yes you can buy them in any pharmacy If it’s possible I would like two boxes. If it’s not too much trouble please advise me the cost I believe they are 7euros a box  plus  postage. I would then transfer the payment to you in what form you prefer.

Thank you

Linda

Hi Linda, I got your lovely card this morning and the 10 euros, so thank you. If you get low again just let me know and I will order you some in, it’s no problem. Hopefully things should get back to normal again soon and you can return to Spain.            Kind Regards Sally                                     ps: (Kristie is my daughter and she is a member of the forum and she saw your post but doesn’t drive, so I got the pills and posted them).

Thanks again Sally it has been really lovely corresponding with you and Kristie. Stay safe and hopefully I’ll be able to return again to Spain in the not too distance future.

Kind regards
