Hi,
I've recently moved to HCMC from the UK.
I have Rhumatoid arthritis and need to find a reputable supplier for medication.
Most urgent at the moment is prednisone 5mg tablets.

But I also need to locate the following.
sulphasalazine 500mg
dicloflenac 50mg
hydroxychlorine sulphate 2002g
osmeprazole 20mg
tramadol hydrochloride 50mg

Any help in locating these and a good but not extortionately expensive doctor?

Thanks in advance x

Will

What district are you in? I have a small pharmacy and a large one that carries way more on Nguyen Trai street in district 1 very near district 5. One thing to do is to look up each drug and get the generic names and take that with you to the pharmacy.
