The variables that decide how a cross-border order goes are declaration wording, the destination country's import rules for prescription medicines,…

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from a UK pharmacy. Customs can be hit or miss.

Shipping time: 7-14 days
Customs clearance: smooth, no issues
Quality: Janoshik tested at 97.5% purity

International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

One thing that is still open after SleepDoc_PDX’s answer:

Whether an unchanged LDL-C alongside a large triglyceride fall is a good result or a bad one, because ApoB and LDL-C seem to be telling different stories?

International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas:

Required FDA import alert review, delayed 10 days.

Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

OP back with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one.

For the archive: it took about six weeks rather than the two I expected, and the difference between those two numbers was the whole of my problem.

Agreed, with the usual condition: that holds for the average and this board is a collection of individuals. A population claim and a personal prediction are different things and get quoted interchangeably.

Worth separating that from the lipid panel, which this thread keeps folding into the same question. They behave differently and the advice does not transfer.

Happy to go further on any of that.
