Hello, 

 

I have investigated that it is possible to buy  Omeprazole 20 mg. without prescription for acid reflux in Thailand. 

 

Can I be 100% sure that the products are samme high quality as I'm buying here in Denmark? Especially when it comes to side effects? 

 

Thanx. 

 

Yes, you can. It's imported from original sources. Several brands are available. It's legit.

Thanx. And it is very easy to get at the Pharmacy, for instance in Khao Lak. Right?  

Never been to a pharmacy that didn't have it, I buy some every few months. Cheap and works same as UK product.

Fascino does the GPO version, 100 for circ 180 baht. The most common version you find in pharmacies is 14 tablets for 100+ baht

Every pharmacy has it. Multiple local brands. No prescription required.

 

I have used "Miracid" and "Omeprazole GPO" brands with no problem.

I use "Miracid" too, effectively and without problems.

It is so cheap (3 baht/tablet) that I take it from the hospital pharmacy. It's not worth the bother of going elsewhere.

So what you are telling me is that I should not be worried about taking them? 

Thanx ????

I was paying 25 baht for 14 pills. 

 

That being said omeprazole is a nasty "medication" that sometimes causes even more reflux. Thai pharmacies have some natural herbal pills which help better, but everyone's reflux is different, so.....

 

Btw, air quality can definitely, 100 percent be related to acid reflux. My stomach always feels much better back home.

If you mean worried about using a Thai brand vs one from your hoem country no, no worries.

 

There are potential concerns regarding using the drug per se on a daily basis long term.

FromDenmark, what side effects have you experienced?

no side effects for me. They aren't meant to be taken "long term"

Hi. Yes I know. I get them prescribed by my own doctor, and we are in dialog :)

I will need them when I get to Thailand due to all the spicy food.  And I'm a bit afraid of bringing my own Omeprazole pills into the country. 

So I really need to know that I don't need to worry :)

Hmm, right.

 

That is what I was taking them for. Only had a problem when I'd been out for a drink, one before I went out sorted it.

Then I needed two so I gave up drinking. Now I have the bad stomach again so I take one when I am symptomatic.

 

Do they actually cure anything or do they just mask the problem.?

Side effects, they talk about 3-6 months being long term. Google side effects, I can't remember specifics

They should help the stomach heal because the amount of acid reduces. But they don't cure the cause. I have mild gastritis now and take Omeprazole every other day but I don't know what the original cause is but i know what things give me symptoms
