A bright northern European river promenade, a figure walking away

Who can prescribe a GLP-1, what it costs, and what insurance will touch is a different answer in Berlin, Warsaw and Vilnius. This page is a local-authority briefing, not a clinic. Rules move.

It will not find you a pen, a compounded vial, or a Telegram seller. Cross-border personal import is a legal question, not a life hack. If a price looks impossible, assume the product is.

Nutrition does not change at the border. Protein, two sessions, fluid, a night. The German, Polish or Lithuanian kitchen still has oats and yoghurt. The two products we ship are the same ones: Creatine Daily Gummies and SleepHit.
