Where to buy Tret in Palma

Hello lovely mumsnetters. I have previously used Tret with Dermatica, but looking to get just Tret and I'm off to Palma, Mallorca next week. Does anybody know where I can get it and what to ask for. Had no luck in Alcudia 2 years ago.

Ask for Retirides at the Pharmacy (shops with a green cross, not toiletries/perfume/cosmetic shops)

Brilliant thank you. I think I must have been asking wrong last time. Asked for Tretinonin.

I don't think you'll get it. I was in Malaga and Gran Canaria last year and have bought it previously in both places but literally went to every single chemist I saw and couldn't get it (and am probably on some sort of list now!!) I was told that you now need a prescription to buy it in Spain.

Retrides is what to ask for (I even had an old used tube with me to show that I've already been using it) Good luck!

Thanks @LifeInAHamsterWheel I just came across something that said you now need a prescription. What a shame

I got retiredes in Palma last June. Just walked into a pharmacy. Also got some at Palma airport. No idea if it’s changed since then

Thank you. I think it may have changed October time last year. I will give it a go

I was in Canaries in July and Malaga September and couldn't get it then in either place. Really hope you have better luck. However, if you don't, you can get it in the Middle East. My friend brought some back from the chemist in the airport in Doha when there for a stopover! And I know someone else got it in Dubai.
