Hi everyone, Question about healthcare and prescriptions in Thailand.

I am looking to continue my prescription and treatment with Inflectra (a Remicade like IV administered medication for Crohn's disease), but so far have not had any luck at the private hospital I've checked with.

I'm told I may be able to order it through a pharmacy or some hospitals.

Does anyone in Thailand know if this is available? Or have any recommendations on where to look? (even if it's in a neighbouring country)

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user inquires about the availability of Inflectra, a medication for Crohn's disease, in Thailand, as they have not found it at a private hospital. The community provides suggestions, including checking with Medconsult in Bangkok and Bangkok Hospital in Phuket for possible access to the medication.

hi Chris, thanks for this. But that’s related to a software company named inflectra, and not the medication.

thanks Robert. I tried reaching out to Bangkok hospital originally, but they said they don’t have it available.

I’ll reach out to the hospital in Phuket.
