Does anyone know if Verapamil, Eliquis, lipitor and amniotoron are available in Chiang Mai?

Eliquis - yes but only fro ma hospital and will be very expensive. You'll have to see a doctor first.

 

Verapamil - over the counter. Locally made brand name is Sopmil (non SR. If you need SR only brand is Isoptin, expensive import)

 

Atorvastatin (Lipitor) - over the counter.  One locally made brand, Chlovas, but people have reported it hard to find. Other brands are expensive imports.

 

I don't know what amniotoron is. Have you spelkled it correctly?
