Hi
i cannot speak for the specific medication, but the ministry involved is very good at providing guidance on a one on one basis.
Dear Cate
Hello.
What country are you from? You should probably check, because amphetamines are regulated in Japan. Possession without a prescription is illegal, so it’s safer to check with your Japanese embassy.
Thanks.
Tak
