Thank you very much!
I’ll go ask for the letter to help when done moving.
I appreciate the advice!Chronic medication when moving to Japan
Just as an extra note I’ve read Bringing Medicine to Japan
https://www.accessible-japan.com/bringing-medicine-to-japan/
which gave me basic idea (but not specifics) and I’ve contacted the help line on https://www.mhlw.go.jp/english/policy/health-medical/pharmaceuticals/01.html but due to Golden week I thought I’d try a different route while waiting.
Chronic medication when moving to Japan
Good day.
First time posting, I’m planning to move to Japan and I want to know how what do I have to do about chronic medication?
How much am I allowed to take with and do I need documentation for it. (diagnosis from Dr. etc?)
Do I see a doctor for a follow up prescription when I’m done moving to Japan?Any help or advice will be appreciated.
