Where to get tretinoin? Advice appreciated

Hi,

I’ve seen a few posts on here about getting tretinoin and how to get it but none of them are recent. Is there an affordable or easy way to get it and if so how could I do that? Any advice or pointers in the right direction would be really appreciated. Thanks.

I have seen it on ebay if that helps

I get it on Greg's Pharmacy UK

Never had any issues

I use Dermatica and highly recommend it. It only takes 5 minutes to upload some photos and my prescription came through within a few hours. It's £22 for each prescription.

That should have said Geoff's pharmacy Smile

Dermatica here too.

I get retirides when I go to Spain. It’s about 22 euros from the farmacia, no prescription needed.

I got some in Portugal for 3 euros but that’s not massively helpful! I’ve heard good things about The Andorra Pharmcy (farmacieenandorra.com) and that’s often recommended on here.

Though I’m going to try Dermatica when I run out and I like that they mix the tretinoin with other ingredients to make it more tolerable and they tailor it to you.

Thanks for the suggesions

I had seen them but they seem very dodgy - asking for my DOB with my card details, and trustpilot has some nasty reviews of them. Looks like a scam but I’m not sure🤔

I've used Geoff's pharmacy for years without any issues.

Not quite the same but you can get A313 retinol on Amazon

@Sammi38 I always get retirides when I go to Spain I went in October and was told I needed a prescription and that the other farmacias had been breaking the law Shock. I trudged around and found one that was happy to sell me a tube.. phew!

Delatron · 07/01/2020 10:33

I had to go to a couple of pharmacies in Portugal. Strict lady insisted I needed a prescription. Went round the corner and a different pharmacy just handed it over with a smile! Wish I’d stocked up , 3.50 euros in Portugal!

Dermatica

lindyloo57 · 07/01/2020 17:19

Last two years I been getting mine in majorca and one year menorca, I hope can still get it this year.
