Can someone please tell me if Felodipine (blood pressure tablet) is available in North Cyprus. My UK GP can only give me a prescription for 2 months as 'they' don't want us to stockpile drugs if there is a No Deal Brexit.

You don't say what dosage you are on but there is no reason felodopine shouldn't be available here. If not ask your doctor about amlodopine which is definitely available.

Ramipril 5mg is also available in the TRNC.

If it's a commonly available drug then you should have no problem. They should all stock it.

It is definitely available. I would suggest you take your UK packet to ensure you get the correct tablet. The Pharmacist, in my experience, can look it up and find the Turkish equivalent.
