Are the 30mg tabs available here? Casual inquiry at a couple of pharmacies said no. But just found this link

The last page indicates "Marketing Authorization Holder" Celgene Ltd.

 

Appreciate if anybody can say if this drug is available in Thailand and the cost if it is.

Thanks, Faraday.

 

Hopefully Sheryl can confirm if what she said Feb. 2019

Apremilast is not yet registered for use in Thailand.

is still applicable.

 

I have another question in case it isn't or is prohibitively expensive here. Normally, I pick up my supplies from stopovers in India heading west. It's cheap as chips there. Now, I am running low and obviously stuck here. However, a pharmacist in Mumbai has been kind enough to agree to mail me a couple of months tablets.

 

What's the best way? Regular mail once that starts operating? Courier? Would it be illegal (2 months worth for personal use) with a copy of the script in the package? Advice please.

it is still not approved for use in Thailand.

 

It is technically illegal to import any pharmaceutical by post without an FDA import license, which yo ucannot get.

 

In practice customs usually lets through very small quantities if sent by regular post. Never, ever use a courier - guaranteed not to pass customs if you do.

Thanks, Sheryl. I'm going to PM you about something if you don't mind.
