I have a question that has nothing to do with visas. Is there any problem with shipping medicine to Thailand?

-------------

Avrei una domanda da fare che non c'entra niente con i visti .ci sono problemi a spedire medicinali in Thailandia ?
Answer summary
Shipping medicine to Thailand can present problems, as customs may stop packages that contain medications or even vitamins and supplements. If customs confiscates the items, retrieving them may require an import permit from the FDA, which is typically difficult for individuals to obtain.

Generally, yes. There are problems shipping medications, and even shipping vitamins & supplements to Thailand. If they are stopped by customs, you won't be able to get them back without getting an import permit from the FDA, which is not going to be possible for most individuals.
