uk101 Posted July 22, 2003 Report Share Posted July 22, 2003 I looked for the patches myself a couple of months ago and none of the Sukhumvit pharmacies stocked them. One shop told me that they're only available from hospitals. Fortunately managed to get some Nicorette gum otherwise it would have been a long flight home ....

lembeh Posted July 23, 2003 Report Share Posted July 23, 2003 Both the gum and the patches are freely available, and on Sukhamvit. Two of the pharmacies just down from nana (towards ploenchit) had them both (I tried both as I was after the 4mg gum, but both only had the 2mg). Cost was 1K plus for a box (can't off hand remember how many in the box). I last bought a bit over a month ago (in preparation for a *long* flight..LOL), so dunno why other poster said could not get.... -j- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pattaya127 Posted July 27, 2003 Report Share Posted July 27, 2003 A pharmacist in Pattaya (fortune Pharmacy) told me about a very good pill called QUORUM, i think. not cheap, around 4000bahts for the set. said you start the program, a table a day, without stopping to smoke, but slowly reduce voluntarily your smoking, and the second week, 2 tablets, and stop smoking. I am sorry if i misspelled the name, but this is a good pharmacist, with very good english, and any little problem i had, she always had the right, cheap and efficient medecine for me.
