Hi,

 

I need to buy Metformin XR (Extended Release) and I cannot find it at any pharmacy in Bangkok. Can anyone help? I am in Bangkok (near OnNut BTS).

Generally, normal/standard Meformin is easily available over the counter which is not required. I am looking for XR (extended release). 

Your help will be highly appreciated.

 

Regards,

DK

Moved to the Health forum.

 

Glucophage XR is the only brand of extended release metformin available here. It can be hard to find. There was some discussion in the past of the manufacturer discontinuing it on the Thai market but I don't know the outcome.  The best source of that information would be the distributior

If they say it is still on the market you migth be able to find out from them what pharmacies they have supplied it to.

 

If you want to try on your own first, I suggest the Rung Rote pharmacy on Soi Onnut, about 50-100 meters from Sukhmvit on the right hand side.
