I am a Canadian citizen in Mexico City for 6 months. In Canada I have a prescription for sleeping pills (Zopiclone) that I have had for several years. I have run out of my pills so went to a clinic here in Mexico to get a new prescription. In Canada a general doctor can make this prescription, but they told me I have to see a specialist in Mexico. But, they did not tell me what kind of specialist. Can someone please tell me what sort of specialist I need to see in Mexico City, and what is the process to get the prescription? Thank you!

  • You need a psychiatrist The process depends on whether you seek public or private help. In public assistance it is necessary that you go to the health center to be referred to a specialist, in the private consultation you only need to make an appointment with said specialist and discuss your medical history.
