Prescription medicines issues in different EU countries

[zeki]

Hi everyone,

I am from the UK and my account got banned for selling prescription medicine: (anti aging cream with vitamin A ingredient) I didnt want to push my luck or go for stealth accounts etc.

I later on discovered that sellers from Greece and Bulgaria can sell same medicines for years now. I asked them and they say it is not prescription medicines in their countries. is it why ebay allow them to sell? or ebay has strict rules across their cross-country platforms but these people just slip the net? I am very confused. I read all their policies but couldnt find any information about different policies accordign to different coutnries and their local medical laws.

Can anyone help me understand?

IF THE Greek and Bulgarian sellers are still selling,then it must be their governments do not consider them as prescription drug.
Wonder what happens if someone in USA or UK import them,what would their customs office say?

Do you selling the exact same medicine ?

For example Nizoral cream is a prescription medicine in the UK, but you can still find active listings on eBay.

For OTC - products are allowed, as long as:

- You are a business seller. Private sellers are not allowed to sell medicines
- Their listings neither mention nor compare them to prescription drugs
- You are also required to display a common logo issued by a competent authority, such as the Medicines and Health Products Regulatory Authority (MHRA) in the UK, in your listings when you offer for sale these GSL medicines. Worldwide including non-UK postage should not be offered on these items as it's impossible to verify whether it is legal for sale in every country. Similarly, please understand that items authorised for sale in other countries aren't necessarily authorised for sale in the United Kingdom
