I am retiring to Pattaya in November and am taking Statins & Aspirin daily on prescription. Can I purchase Statins in Pattaya ?. If so, where and how much. Thnx

Hi
As you - I also take medication on prescription.
All medicines can be sourced at the big pharmacies but I would suggest you start at a hospital, a bit more expensive but they will guide you to the correct Thai version of your medicine.
Take a copy of your prescription with you if you have one.
Really quite simple to be fair.
