Uniphar BModesto We import medicines from EU countries where the rates are lower than in the Netherlands at that time. In our warehouse in Lelystad, the products are extensively checked according to the strictest quality standards. We provide the medicines with a Dutch package leaflet and, where possible, repack the medicines to the original Dutch packaging. In this way we ensure optimal availability of medicines and we can provide pharmacies, outpatient clinics and hospitals with the right medicines at the best prices!
