Strattera In Thailand

[BinKata]

I am looking for Strattera or the generic Atomoxetine in Thailand.

It is a non amphetamine drug. If it is availlable here can it be acquired in local Pharmacies or do you need to go to a Hospital Pharmacy?

It is approved for use in Thailand, available only in the brand name form Strattera.

I do not know whether or not it is a controlled substance. It might not be since non-amphetamine and apparently low abuse potential. But it may also not be that easy to locate.

If you are in Bangkok, Pattaya or Chiang Mai suggest you call or visit Fascino's pharmacy and ask. Even if they do not have it they will know if it is controlled or not.

Price of Stattera in Thailand?

Anyone has latest info if this is controlled or not?

Is there need to have a thaiprescription?

thanks

I can't say about cost (except that it will be probably a bit more than it weould cost in Canada or Europe since that is where it will likely have been imported from) but I have been able to verify that it is indeed limited to presc ription only, you will have to get it from a doctor at a hospital.

Went To Bumrungrad Hospital. A 10-minute consultation with Neurologist was about 1500 Baht.

Bumrungrad Hospital Pharmacy quoted me about 165 Baht/per pill of Strattera (any dose from 10mg to 40mg). Much more expensive than overseas, so I went with Ritalin at 17 Baht/per pill (10mg).
