Officials from Kathu District Office led by Kathu District Chief Somprach Prabsongkram along with a pharmacist from the Phuket Public Health Office (PPHO), randomly checked pharmacies in the Kathu District this week.

 

Three pharmacies in Patong have been checked and found to be legal. Police were checking for sales of cough syrups that could be used to mix with Kratom leaves to make a psychotropic cocktail.

 

But a pharmacy on Wichit Songkhram Road near Kasikorn Bank in Kathu was checked and declared illegal.  Officials found that some medicines were found on the dangerous drugs list.

And they will need to find more in the future, as their traditional "tea money" revenue streams dry up, due to the change of tourist demographic here. 

Almost all pharmacies in Thailand selling not listed drugs!
