@Phu***

you’re welcome. if you have any issue with a regular pharmacy (outside of the hospital) just go see a Thai doctor in the hospital (which will normally cost around $20-30 USD) and explain the situation and you should get the prescription. Go downstairs and grab your meds from the pharmacy. That is my experience and I tried numerous pharmacies. It could be that my meds are not as common etc. There are also some meds that the doctor is required to ask you some questions before prescribing.

thanks!!! I will check it out and let you know.

how interesting, are you willing to share the location? I want to check them out. We all have to keep in mind that each one of us requires different meds. Most of my medicine the Pharmacies outside of the hospital cannot or will not carry them.

@Bunny ****

😂 you actually running into the numerous locations that I’ve been to would be like winning the lottery. There’s a pharmacy or 3 on every corner. It’s not the pharmacy and remember that it depends on the meds.

yes you’re right but you don’t need to bring the foreign prescription. If they have it they will give it to you.

A regular pharmacy on the street doesn’t have all medicine and if they do have what you need, you can show a foreign prescription or no foreign prescription - You will still get it. If you go to a hospital pharmacy where they have everything, you will have to see a doctor. I’ve been to about 7 hospitals in my travels through Thailand and they absolutely will not give me a refill until a doctor checks me out. I have a few conditions that require numerous meds. I’ve gone through all of this so many times. If the street pharmacy doesn’t have what you need then pay the $20 for the doctor visit and get your meds downstairs.

@Bart *************

the ones on the street right?

@Bart *************

hey Bart. Did you just go to one pharmacy or multiple?
