What FDA personal-importation guidance does—and does not—mean?

FDA personal-importation guidance describes how FDA personnel may consider certain personal shipments. It does not create a right to import or a preapproval process. A patient-specific record may need to address personal use, quantity, treating-clinician information, continuity of treatment, risk, domestic alternatives, and other circumstances. The government reviews the actual shipment and may inspect, detain, refuse, return, or destroy it. Always consult current official guidance.
