TLDR : Answer Summary
A query was raised about the availability of Strattera medication in Bangkok, particularly for foreigners. Responses highlighted that Strattera, being a controlled drug, generally requires a doctor's prescription. While there may be some availability at hospitals or clinics, it's suggested that ADHD medications are mostly accessible through such medical facilities. Additionally, for foreigners bringing medication into Thailand, there are regulations, including the need for a doctor's note and possibly applying for a permit from the Thai FDA to import a 90-day supply.

I think it is available with prescription. Therefore, it might have to be purchased through the hospital or clinic.

Not sure they have Straterra but most adhd meds you can only get at a hospital. The hospitals are pricey for prescriptions. You can bring 90 day supply with a doctor note, printed RX, letter from provider and apply for a permit from thai FDA( search bar makes easy) to bring into the country.
