Prescription RequiredLegal Status of Peptides
Turkey's Ministry of Health regulates peptides as prescription medications. Istanbul (IST) and Sabiha Gökçen (SAW) customs are document-driven. Turkey's growing medical tourism sector means pharmaceutical declarations are handled professionally with proper paperwork.
Airport & Customs Rules
- Carry prescription translated to Turkish (or English with clear medical justification)
- Declare medications on the customs form
- Original labeled packaging strongly recommended
- Personal-use 3-month supply maximum
Climate & Storage Tips
- Hot Mediterranean summers (40°C+ in Antalya, Bodrum) — insulated transit essential
- Hotel mini-fridges standard in Istanbul, Ankara, and resort towns
- Cappadocia balloon tours start before dawn — keep peptides in hotel fridge until return
- Domestic flights (Turkish Airlines, Pegasus) permit medical ice packs
