Can I bring Chinese patent medicine into the UK?

The British Council for Cultural Education (Cultural Education Office of the British Embassy) held a live webcast of "Pre-departure Meeting 2022", which answered many questions of concern to overseas students, including the question of Chinese patent medicine being brought into the UK. International students can bring a small amount (1-2 months) of Chinese patent medicines (granules, capsules) into the country for their own use, provided that the ingredients of the medicines are fully described. If you are not sure whether the Chinese patent medicine you are taking contains four ingredients controlled by Britain, it is recommended to consult a doctor first or not. Traditional Chinese medicine contains a large number of roots, leaves and seeds of plants, and customs of various countries are not allowed to bring them into China at will. If it is necessary to bring drugs containing controlled ingredients or a large number of drugs for personal use into the declaration in advance, we suggest that students with long-term drug needs bring a dose of 1-2 months to the UK for transitional use, and use NHS service to follow up their illness and medication after registering as GP doctors.

The above is some information about visa inquiry and before departure. I hope everyone can start school smoothly. Find new channels for studying abroad and provide services such as background improvement and language training for everyone.
