Dzień dobry,
I am from the United States of America and will be living in Poznań for the next 18 months. I have a prescription from my doctor in the US for progesterone and norelgestromin-ethin.estradiol patches due to a radical hysterectomy. Can these be filled with the prescription I have from my doctor in the US?
And, is it possible to purchase the RXs here online and pick them up at a nearby pharmacy? I have included a photo of the two prescriptions.
Thank you, Rayna Samples

In Poland, prescription dispensing laws are different from those in the United States. Usually, prescriptions issued in another country, including the USA, are not honored in Polish pharmacies. Therefore, you will not be able to fill a prescription from your doctor in the USA in a Polish pharmacy.
To get the medication you need, it may be best to consult a doctor in Poland who can assess your health needs and issue a local prescription for medications available in Poland. If you need more personalized advice, you can use teleconsultations here:

As for online shopping, it is possible to book prescription drugs in Poland, but you must have a prescription issued by a Polish doctor. Through Gdziepolek, it is possible to book medicines in a selected pharmacy:
