Default Does Anyone Here Live In Europe?

I need someone who lives in Europe to get a prescription for the alaxolito nasal stent. They can only ship it to people who live in Europe, yet here I am in America with a blocked nasal passage at night going crazy not being able to breathe through my nose easily. But I would need someone to get the alaxolito nasal stent in Europe and then pay them to send it to me in America.

I really do need someone I can trust. I need this nasal stent. I've become obsessed with getting the alaxolito plus. I'm pretty sure, my swollen turbinates are what are keeping me from breathing decently at night. And the nasal stents sold in Europe can fix that problem without drugs or surgery.

I need someone to get the prescription for it and then I'll pay them to send it to me. Please! I'm desperate!

Most European countries have a state funded health service and no doctor would issue a prescription for a classified medical device witout examining the patient.

You could try contacting a private ENT practice to see if they would provide a prescription without an examination, but I wouldnt bet on it.

Google ENT clinics Europe.

the thing is, almost anyone could use a nasal stent at night to help them breathe. Most people probably have swollen turbinates. So almost anyone could probably get a prescription for it.

But, do you think a european ent clinic could possibly work with me and order one and then send it to me in the USA? that would be fantastic. I'm super desperate to get a good night's sleep.

The fact that you need a prescription says it all,its classed as a medical device by the manufacturer. Nobody can just ask their doctor to provide a prescription for a medical device for them without a consultation and the doctor agreeing that they need it.

Its not like private insurance in the US, the taxpayer is responsible for picking up the tab and a doctor providing a prescription for anything without an examination is asking for trouble.

I have already started to email some. That was a great idea, by the way.

Most people have trouble breathing at night when they lay down. There are tons of people who probably use breathe right strips and afrin and nasonex, etc.
