I can't seem to find the above medication. I've been to see 3 doctors and 2 pharmacies. All say "no have". Do they have any form of link up that could tell me as to where it's available in my area, saving me much time and effort? Thanks.

It is available in Thailand under brand names:

 

Minipres (imported, expensive)

 

Lopress

 

Polypress

 

Prazosin T.O.

 

Pressin

 

Mima

 

Hyposin (2 mg only)

 

Atodel

 

Any large pharmacy staffed by a "real" pharmacist (rarer than you might think) will have at least one of these formulations. To make a specific suggestion as to location, need to know where in Thailand you live.

 

 

Thank you Sheryl, I live between Buriram & Nakhon Ratchasima Province away from the big cities. Irrespective, the info you gave will help. Once again thanks.

Try largest pharmacy in nearest provincial town. And write down the names of the drug and show them in writing, often they don't understand the words spoken, but any genuine pharmacist will recognize the names written down.

 

Small-town pharmacies almost never have real pharmacists on staff and will often say they don't have something when in fact it is right behind them on the shelves. Though in the case of this drug, it is quite possible small town pharms don't carry it.
