Question to steff or any European citizen

is there any possibility that a non European person could buy viread or taf from France, italy or any other country? because in my country Gilead doesn't allow us to use Viread  for hbv (No AMM for HBV actually even 10 years after its release) also in my country interferon the first one not pegasys is still the first line then they will stop giving you medication, if relaps, Lamuvidine si the first choice...
i have money to buy Viread even if its is 400 euro its not a big deal... i can go to europ every 3 months to buy the medication and do the tests, at least until we see a complete functional cure in the near future.
Thank you

going to india is the best option, many brands all cheap viread included

you can buy tdf with prescription in pharmacy at citta del vaticano which is in rome but i dont kno w if they carry it because we get it free at hospital here in italy so noone gets it from pharmacy.i think its just a waste of money getting it here

i dont know laws in your country but a doctor can prescribe any drug if he thinks it is for your benefit (off label prescription)

I think FDA dont approved TAF for hep b yet. Its only for HIV patient as i know. If you have mony go to europe for monitoring and treatment until functional cure come to market may be 2020
