Is Melatonin Unavailable in Thailand Now?

I spoke to a pharmacist and received some information regarding Melatonin, which explains why it's no longer available for online purchase. While it hasn't become illegal, its status has changed. In Thailand, Melatonin is no longer considered a supplement but rather a medicine, so it can only be bought from a pharmacy.

 

This change makes sense since medicines typically cannot be ordered online; they must be obtained from a pharmacist. This shift benefits pharmaceutical companies, allowing them to increase prices for Melatonin products that were once inexpensive. Therefore, if you want Melatonin, you'll need to purchase it from a pharmacy.

My farmacist says that you can buy only Thai brand melotonin, max 2mg strenght.

ICYMI A few days ago I ordered Melatonin at iHerb. Per brand you can only order 1 tub but when you order a second tub from another brand then it's accepted.

The issue with iHerb is that it ships internationally, and the shipping costs can exceed 200 baht.

Does anyone have a current link to buy 5mg Melatonin?

 

I tried iHerb but it doesn't allow the order to complete to Thailand. I'm currently using a very pricey Circadian from a Thai pharmacy and looking for a better option.

 

TIA
