Hey dear expats,

Anyone of you ever ordered medicines online from websites like Alibaba.com or others? And what if the medicines is banned in KSA? I need some medicines which are not available in the market but are available online..and they are saying they normally send the deliveries for KSA from India,,, But on the other side the specific medicines are banned in KSA. So will it create any problem or not in the delivery to me here in Riyadh,
Anybody having ideas about this, kindly share it.. Thanks for your valuable time

Could you please specify ,what kind of medicine you are ordering because if you are bringing any article or drugs that are illegal according to Drugs and Narcotics Control ,then  here is a link: http://www.saudiembassy.net/services/Br … ngdom.aspx 
But only if you are certain that you need this drug at all cost ,
