leonardjones625 Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I want to stock up on some medicines and I want to know where is the best place to buy in bulk. I have heard there's someone near Wararot market that sells to a lot of the pharmas in CM, and the prices there are better. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) I doubt if the place near Kad Luang supplies other pharmacies. It's just another retail operation. There are wholesale pharmacies but they won't sell to you. You could ask a doctor, dentist or even veterinarian friend to make an order for you. Even dog breeders can make orders from wholesale suppliers. There are a few wholesale suppliers here and a few in Lamphun. Otherwise, just shop around - asking for prices in 200-300+ capsules per medication. Dara is O.K. for some things.

Trujillo Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 This may not help, but if you want hard-to-find, over-the-counter drugs, try flying to Siem Reap. You will find many happy things there at good prices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BritManToo Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) Basic stuff is cheap in the Makro Pharmacy (on the ring road near the train station intersection). Antibiotics are around 25bht per bubble pack (10 x 500mg) Paracetamol 25bht per tub of 100. Edited June 30, 2018 by BritManToo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a great guy. But certainly not the kind of place with huge stocks to consider for wholesale shopping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBrad Posted July 1, 2018 Share Posted July 1, 2018 This reminds me of a dilemma I had a couple of weeks ago. I had a small supply of various drugs that I bought after a number of consultations with doctors at Sipaht Hospital. Some were effective for my condition, but there were others which were either too powerful causing unwanted reactions, or unhealthy interactions with other drugs which I was also taking. What to do with perfectly good medicines which are of no use to me? I asked at one of the larger pharmacies, and they told me that, rather than flushing them down the toilet, they could be donated to the pharmacy, and they would get them to patients who couldn't afford them. Being a bit skeptical, I kiddingly suggested that the pharmacy would just put them back on the shelf and sell them later. She assured me that that wouldn't happen. Anyway, I solved my oversupply of meds issue. This may be good advice for those who are in a similar predicament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So directly at the gate entrance to the left? Yes. But the gate is no longer there. I saw them removing it about 10 days ago. Honestly, prices are O.K. there. Don't go with the expectation that it is much less than anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
