Does anyone have an English-language list containing what medications are approved in Saudi?

Please note that I'm an American, so I can neither get (let alone afford) a year's supply of my medications.

As long as you have a Doctor's letter you should be OK to bring your meds with you. I have never been stopped to check my meds. in five years. You will have insurance I am sure? This will cover you up to a certain amount for current conditions that you have.

My Husband has bought three months supply over the counter here. Unless you have a very obscure or very new drug, you can get most things you need here.

Hope this helps :happy:

Hi Cairanya, I'm afraid there are no ready references / lists available on the internet.

You can check with the authorities directly on the email address provided by Fazii above.

Also, you can refer to the link for the to begin with.

An  Internatonal courier company also provides some insight into the same -
