Hello

How long is a prescription valid in Spain? Prescription would be written in another EU country.

Thanks

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

When I got a prescription here in Latvia it had an expiry date printed on it. It might depend on the particular prescription. I had a prescription for a year's supply of medication and it was valid for year.
