synaesthesia Posted October 16, 2006 Hi Guys its my first post here, although i have been viewing all the threads for quite a while now. Look ive just got a question. Its about the legality of the dried herb Epherda Sinica in australia. Is it legal to buy, possess and even re sell in australia for use as a natural herbal redemdy to blocked noses etc.. ? If it is i could probably sell some on Swap'n'sell. Thanks for any info. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SaBReT00tH Posted October 16, 2006 Not sure about growing E Sinica but I'm quite sure all dried Ephedra species are illegal to posess or use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

apothecary Posted October 22, 2006 I think if you have a prescription, you can legally import. Customs will almost assuredly intercept, and request a prescription. If you have one, they will release the product to you. Check with Torsten on this before ordering half a kilo of ephedrine please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torsten Posted October 22, 2006 get a script, then get a letter from your state health department and a letter from customs confirming that all is in order. if something goes wrong then at least you have written confirmation to take to court.

Don't use email. he doesn't want to import it. He has it. he bought it somewhere in qld for cheap and now wants to sell it on swapnsell. I told him that i think epehdra contaning herbs where illegal to have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
apothecary Posted October 23, 2006 We were talking to danemacca Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Torsten Posted October 23, 2006 yeah, my response was in regards to danemacca. however, re the original post, I know that it is illegal to sell ephedra in several states, incl Qld and SA. Not sure about the others, but would presume they are the same. I am not too sure about possession though.I'd need to look that up. The law would be in reference to the ephedrine content of ephedra rather than ephedra itself I believe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
