Is Pregabalin legal in Poland?
- Legal status
- Pregabalin is a prescription medicine (Rp) in Poland and is NOT placed on the narcotic/psychotropic schedules (wykaz N/P) of the Counteracting Drug Addiction Act — like gabapentin, it is dispensed as an ordinary prescription medicine rather than a controlled substance.
- Consequences if caught
- Supply without authorisation is a medicines offence; it is not prosecuted under the narcotics-list possession penalties.
- If prescribed or medical
- Dispensed on an ordinary Rp prescription.
- Documentation
- Carry the original prescription; standard-medicine import rules apply because pregabalin is not on the narcotics list.
