Can U Find Metoprolol In Costa Rica?

My husband, family and I are in costa rica and plan on moving here, however he is on 6 different meds, well 7 including a pain reliever after dissection B was done back in February of 2010. His Aorta ruptured and dissected down to his growin area flat lined twice and was Blessed to still be here for his job here on earth has not been completed yet!!! So in taking all these meds it is very difficult for him to sleep.. I believe strongly in herbs and taking them daily and fighting against the prescription drugs daily also, but can not seem to find an Herb shop or place to locate any natural sleep aid. Although we do natural herbs, he can not just stop taking the medication though. He is still under watch of american doctors just not on this trip. We have been gone now for one month and we have just a little over a month left of medications and need to know where we can find these meds or something comparable to them. Because from the blog readings I found it seems to be very difficult to have medication shipped her from the US and hard to get anything here comparable to it if not a Native Tica or Tico.. :( Anyone with any suggestions even from a native would be very helpful her are the names of medication and Bless All who respond and your families...

I really wish I could help, but since we are based in the U.S. I have no idea what is available for you there.

Have you perhaps thought of consulting a local doctor to see if they can help you obtain what is needed?

In the future for such a long trip, you may wish to plan ahead and take enough of the medications with you to last for the duration.

As long as they are not controlled substances, you are permitted to do so. Though customs may want to see proof that they are all being user on doctor's orders.
