It was developed by a Soviet from Estonia in the late 70s so after 91 , they gave the patent to Estonia . It is Estonia’s largest medical export but is also manufactured in other EU nations under licence.

You can buy it in UK supplement sites 20 pounds for 60 tablets.

It says ‘ Used famously by Maria Sharipova ‘!!!
