How can I find a reliable pharmacy for high blood pressure medication in Thailand?
so just an update on my high blood pressure tablets Search, so I'm on Amlodipine 5g and Ramipril 5g, so after many pharmacies in the bigger city's and smaller towns saying they have Amlodipine but can't get or even order Ramipril,went to the local hospital and went through the regular checks and received a mouth's supply of both tablets for 95 baht,
happy days, one less thing to worry about, lol,

I use a pharmacist in Phuket that is very helpful. She isn’t in the tourist area and charges reasonable prices. She even has aspirin. And will special order stuff for me if possible.

Check the bigger pharmacies, not the ones in the main drags. Hospital prices are high.
I think you meant a month's supply
