non-FDA approved items
Topical Ibuprofen is not available in the USA because the FDA discontinued it many years ago. It is available in other countries such as the UK. I purchased some from a seller that is apparently US-based (according to her "about"). I asked her where she was able to get the product. She gave me a link to a UK pharmacy. The pharmacy exists, but Americans cannot purchase products from this pharmacy's website because they only ship to the UK and the Isle of Man (?). I then asked her how she was able to do this, and is she actually located in the US. She has not responded. I learned from a Google search that someone can sell international items as long as they have an international address corresponding to the source. I don't know. She appears to have reputable ratings, but I wonder why she has not answered my question.
Any thoughts on this?
