If you need to use it long term, I suggest going to those drug stores in front of Siriraj hospital. There prices are like20-40% less than Boots or Watson's. They have them all, both generic and original, vitamins, etc. I normally buy it at Petcharat (Diamond Pharmacy).

I had zero trouble getting my hands on the drugs I needed and they were really cheap. Used Boots for some and Watson’s for the others. Thailand is way ahead when it comes to healthcare.

Hello, great vid thanks. I take Dihydrocodeine which is a category 2 drug, I'm struggling to find a price an ability in Thailand. I've emailed several pharmacies and even Bumrungrad Hospital and they just reply saying they don't have it. It's stopping me visiting Thailand long-term ☹️.
@thebangkokguide 5 ай бұрын
You will need to contact a hospital as normally only the hospital pharmacies will prescribe Category 2 narcotics. Pharmacies won’t have them. It’s a fairly strict system. I’d recommend sending an email to all the major hospitals (Bumrungrad, Bangkok, Samitivej etc) and ask each one. You will need a consultation and a new prescription for Thailand. You can also check the public hospitals which are very good and likely cheaper - esp Chula and Sriraj.

Hey bud, quick question, but not related to this video…lolol. When renting. Condo in Thailand - I am currently renting one in Hua Hin. How do you stay away from them using the condo like a hotel?

Peace brother

@@thebangkokguide thanks bud. Let me clarify with the amenities. I signed a long term lease but they have all these rules. They have a BBQ station by the pool but your not aloud to use it cause your not the owner. Plus they have a no eating or drinking policy by the pool. For example, if you violate the rules, they want to charge you 1000 baht per violation. For example, if am caught eating by the pool, that’s a 1000 baht. About half the rules, you should be aloud to do as rights as a tenant. The other half of the rules, I agree with such as no smoking. But most of the rules are coming from they are treating it like a hotel. But when I signed the lease, I was told they only do long term rentals but after being here for 3 months, that’s not the case at all. Peace brother

@@thebangkokguide Thank you very much for the reply. I understand those meds are heavily regulated, but I've been taking the stuff for 15 years, and I'll have no trouble getting the prescriptions. I intend on a long stay there, years, who knows. I'm coming from a few years in the Philippines, and it's the same there. Only certain doctors can prescribe. In the Philippines a 30mg Oxy was about $8AUD, so maybe $6US each. The MS Contin is nowhere near as effective, however, they were about $3Aud - $2.20US each for a 60mg each pill each. The reason I'm asking is that none of the pharmacies or hospitals return emails, so I cannot get said information. In fact one hospital did return a message but without the pricing I requested, they wanted me to leave them my house in my wiull before sharing the information. Not exactly, but they wanted me to jump through so many hoops I just gave up. If they're the same, or even more expensive, I'll just stay in the Phils, but I really want to spend some time in Thailand before I leave this world. This is why I put out that request. If you happen to be in a reputable pharmacy one day, I sincerely appreciate it if you could at least ask for even a couple of them. Thank you in advance sincerely.

I am unsure about prices. I'll take a look, but generally this is a hospital only drug with pretty strict conditions around prescription. However, if you have an existing prescription it is possible to bring a 90-day supply with you, which is the maximum allowed. Remember that whatever amount much you bring, you must get permission to import it first, before you travel as this is a class 2 narcotic in Thailand, so you need to have an approval from the Thai FDA to import any amount, even for personal medical use. Check this site for details and the forms/documents you need to submit: permitfortraveler.fda.moph.go.th/nct_permit_main/
