Jim's_a_Thai_Fox Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 (edited) Hi, My local chemist sells 10mg diazepam for 10B each. I always take two on long haul flights and on overnight bus trips too. I don't think that this is illegal, just normally a prescription drug in most places. That said, if you are on a stopover in any middle east country, notably Dubai, then do not have anything on your person whatsoever. I entered Dubai with a 10 pack of these little blue pills only to realize later the stupidity of my actions. cheers Jim Edited October 6, 2011 by Jim's_a_Thai_Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you know, the law is not always strictly enforced. If you have significant quantities of this drug on your person without a prescription, though, it can definitely cause you problems -- especially crossing international borders.

I got some legally once as i came off my bike and damaged my ribs so when to doctors and complained about lack of sleep, he gave me prescription - you could go to doctors and say you need some pills for anxiety or to help you sleep on the plane and get a prescription in case you get stopped with these pills.

Swiss1960 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Only one question: If you NEED something chemical (heard that their still exist some farang who don't drink.... poor lads...), why not just go see a doctor, get a prescription, buy the meds and travel safely through all borders??? 300B for consultancy and 150B for the meds should be worth preventing any possible issues during checkpoints...

tonititan Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I've tried all kinds of tricks - large amounts of alcohol, Nyquil, sleep deprivation before a flight, over the counter sleeping pills, etc. The only thing that works for me is Xanax. Up to you how you get it in Bangkok, but it's not difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
