Spørsmål
Hi, I'm an exchange student coming to Bergen in August for the year, and I have anxiety medication in the UK. How can i get this prescription when I'm in Norway?

Students in Bergen who has not a GP ("fastlege") can get medical help by contacting Strandsiden legesenter. Students can make an appointment by calling this phone number: 52 69 51 51.
If in need of more acute medical service you are adviced to contact the emergency department ("legevakten") at phone number: 116 117.
It will be up to the doctor`s considerations if you can be prescribed the same medication as you had in the UK. You can also ask at the pharmacy if they have any over-the-counter medication that can be appropriate for your needs.
I wish you good luck with your studies and time in Norway!
