Are Vitamins and Medicine Cheaper in Thailand?

My family has noticed it. Vitamins and medicines seem to be cheaper here in Thailand than in the Philippines or Vietnam.

My sis in law just actually asked me to buy some bottles of Blackmores vitamins for me to bring in Vietnam. It seems those vitamins are expensive in Vietnam. My sis on the other hand was so surprised to only pay 45 Baht for a whole sheet of tablets ( 10 pieces) of the medicine she bought. She said that a tablet of that costs almost 30 pesos ( 20 Baht) in the Philippines. So, with only around 60 Pesos she get’s a whole sheet or 10 tablets of the medicine!

I know these are just a few examples. I would like to do a bit more research and compare more vitamins and products to see whether Thailand has cheaper medicine or not.

For the meantime, let me check on http://www.acne-creams.org and see the price of their acne creams too.

I love to travel to see new places, faces, eat different food, hear different languages and dialect and simply to experience CHANGE from my normal everday life! Enjoy the journey with me as we take a walk from my neighborhood to flying wherever God allows us to go.
