Prescriptions for medicinal products and medical devices
If a medicinal product or medical device was prescribed for a person from another EU Member State or EEA State, it is also possible to get this prescription filled in Austria. Restrictions concerning the recognition of personal prescriptions are only permissible if these restrictions are based on legitimate and justified doubts as to the authenticity, content, or comprehensibility of such a prescription.
