JimmyTheMook Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Is there one in TH with Lazada type competitive pricing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stocky Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) I use DrugstoreBangkok they're cheaper than anyone I can find in Hat Yai. I just email my order rather than trying to navigate the online store. Edited January 29, 2020 by Stocky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Nothing remotely like Lazada in yerms of price. www.drugstorebangkok.com Is the only one I know of with remotely Thai prices There is one other that targets overseas market at inflated prices. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritManToo Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 There are lots of people selling pharmaceuticals on facebook, always worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyTheMook Posted January 29, 2020 Author Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Update, Facino has an online presence and prices are as good or better than in store. I contacted them thru LINE and they were very responsive and receptive. https://fascino.bentoweb.com/en Edited January 29, 2020 by JimmyTheMook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often here, if the prices are cheap it's because they source near expiry date stock, either that or it's a generics manufactured in Timbuktu. Often they don't have what I need so they have to order from Bangkok anyway. With Drugstore Bangkok I know when I email, they'll respond same day, what I want will be in stock, and, once I've made the money transfer, it will be with Kerry Express next day and I'll have it the day after. I also know the tablets I receive will be well in date, and not manufactured in Timbuktu. Edited January 30, 2020 by Stocky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheryl Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Since most drugs sold in pharmacies are Category D and require that there be a grade one pharmacist on duty at all times, online sales are something of a grey area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid via bank transfer and items arrived EMS the next day. So guess they have different departments for medical supplies which they seem to be a huge stockist of and for actual pharmaceutical meds. I was impressed with the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Lazada and Shopee seem to have removed any drug type item (although still good for other items.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not appreciate the huge round types that hospitals often provide. But my point was there are many medications that they do not have - at the same time there are a few that most others do not have and they do.

Fuchs Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Is there anywhere will mail to you whilst your outside of Thailand?

Even if you find one you may well run into legal or customs problem in the country you have it mailed to. What is the medication? Good chance it is available where you are, just by a different name.

Thomas J Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 I called bangkokdrugstore to inquire about some meds. They were reluctant to give prices and only wanted to set up "online" appointment with doctor at 700thb to get any meds even though I have a prescription.
