richsilver Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 I have sent two emails to SC Drugs in Bangkok, and after several days have received no reply. I have successfully ordered drugs from them in the past and would like to continue. Does anyone have any information that may be helpful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThailandRyan Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 The SC Pharmacy on Rama 4 Rd and across from the Hospital was closed over three weeks ago due to either a patron or staff member coming down with Covid. I walked by it again last night and it is still closed as well as the signs still being up on the windows indicating they closed due to having Covid inside. The other pharmacies further down are all opened, but you have to stand outside to pick up your order and behind large plastic sheets. Evenings are bad trying to run by them as there are lines of people waiting to pick up their items. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actonion Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Try "Medisafe" on Facebook also in Bangkok but deliver throughout Thailand too, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonray Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) In my 6 years in Thailand, I've never received a reply to an unsolicited email asking for information. Not the Thai way...use your phone. Better to use LINE app is you know their user name...higher chance of success Edited June 10, 2021 by tonray 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pharmacy unfortunately is closed completely at this point so unless they have forwarded the land line they use to a cell phone no ones going to answer, and if the e-mail is only monitored on the stores computer, then that wont be answered either.

richsilver Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 I just ordered from Medisafe and the five items were 29% cheaper than SC. Plus, they responded instantly and SC typically takes a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThailandRyan Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 @richsilver Did you see my post that they are closed, completely shut down due to Covid, like some businesses have been closed also. I walk by there daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grs90 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Had a similar issue to the OP. After chasing by email yesterday I got this reply today from the usual S.C email address: Greeting from the other branch, The main branch asks me to inform you that they have had a problem accessing the email recently. That's why you haven't gotten any responses from them. I do apologise for this issue. I have sent the transferring information and medicine list to them physically. You might receive the parcel soon. I will inform you as soon as I receive any updates. Regards, Foo So it seems there is still life there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 I take it you have been ordering from them b=via email and they ship to you, is that correct? If so please share the email. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richsilver Posted June 10, 2021 Author Share Posted June 10, 2021 The email (to which they took 5 days to respond) is: [email protected]. As I mentioned in my earlier post, Medisafe (https://www.facebook.com/Medisafe.Pharmacy.Rama4/) responded instantly and was about 29% cheaper for my drug order. I intend to use them in the future.
