This information provided to me by Dra. A. Violeta Ovares de la Peña of PREMAFARMA:
Dear Sara,
We do need a local prescription and there are some physicians that are familiar with US formulations that currently send us prescriptions:
Dr. Paulo Castro Gamboa tel: 234-1402 (San Pedro)
Dr. Rodrigo Núñez tel 229-0006 (his home for appointments, consultations M to F 5 pm to 7:30 pm Coronado 200 m West Municipalidad) rnunez@yahoo.com
Dr. Kenneth Loáciga tel: 257-4215 (San José cerca de Junta de Protección Social)
Dra. Livia Ortuño Pinto tel: 221-5872 (near Clinica Biblica)
Most gynecologists do not “believe” in bioidentical hormones, that is why they do not prescribe. Dr. Paulo is young and trained in Europe, Dra. Livia trained in the US majoring in anti-aging medication and Dr. Loáciga is local ( I do not know if he speaks English but the other 2 do) but with a great interest in his patients and to be up to date in his practice. I hope they can be of help to you.
Regulations indicate that we must receive a valid prescription from a physician authorized to practice in the country (i.e. licensed by the Colegio de Médicos).
Thanks so much for the service given.
Con todo aprecio,
Dra. A. Violeta Ovares de la Peña
