The rules for Strattera (atomoxetine)

Atomoxetine, guanfacine and viloxazine are not controlled medicines in Saudi Arabia, so no advance approval from the Saudi Food and Drug Authority is needed. Carry a copy of your prescription or a medical report that states your condition, the medicine, the dose and the length of treatment. A medical report must be approved by the clinic or hospital and be no more than 6 months old. You can bring at most 3 months' supply, in line with the prescription (SFDA clearance conditions, section 4.2.2, page 12). We also suggest keeping the medicine in its original packaging.

Maximum supply: 90 days

Permit: Not required.
