Are there restrictions on bringing medications like escitalopram into Thailand?

The post inquires about bringing medications, specifically escitalopram, into Thailand while backpacking for an extended period. It raises concerns about possible restrictions at the border related to the importation of medication. Comments from the community primarily address general entry requirements into Thailand, particularly regarding proof of funds in cash, which are often enforced selectively by immigration officers. While experiences vary, most suggest that having the cash ready (20,000 THB or equivalent) is prudent, and while the main concern is about funds, there is no specific mention of restrictions on carrying prescribed medications.
