Never sent a parcel to Bangladesh before. I need to send about 1-2 pounds of medicines.

What is the best way, anyone has any idea?

best is USPS. I think like dhl/fdex they also use a private company in bangladesh to deliver stuff at the destination. you should double check that. if they do ( i think they do) it will be cheapest. else fdex is cheaper then others. BTW you can't send any med u want they have to be custom approved...

They are over the counter medicines, so I don't know if that would be a issue. I took them last time when I went there.

Taking medicines there is different than sending it through postal services. It's the same as taking clothes and sending clothes.

Over the counter medicine doesn't mean it's legal everywhere in the world. More importantly, pharmaceutical companies charge different types of taxes for different countries. I would really urge you to check with the postal company and see if they allow pharmaceutical products to be sent even if it's off the counter. Keep your fingers crossed.

I think u will be ok. but taking with you is not the same as sending them over mail as you have to declare them when you post them but when u r taking them u don't even mention to the custom people (normally)... anyway over the counter stuff should be fine...
