A couple of Pattaya questions

[coltlongbone]

Heading to Pattaya next week. I wondered where is the best pharmacy to buy Viagra (or clone) ? I want to avoid any low grade copies that might be "doing the rounds".

 

 

 

Also, can anyone recommend a good gym, not too hardcore. I just want a couple of light workouts. Any of the big hotels ?

 

 

 

How is the freelancer action on the beach rd ? Are the numbers down 'cos of low season ? Any other current recommendations ?

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

my pharmacy of choice is on the road to Jomtein, 2 blocks past the 'beach road dog leg' ( parrell to walking street ), if you get to the Farmers bank you've gone about 50 meters to far.

 

 

 

They also stock Testosterone, real thing not ando. :-))).. pharmacist is knowledgable & honest... only LOS pharmacy ( I've found ) that I trust!

 

 

 

If you need better directions Shane at Universe Gym on Beach road can help.

 

Universe gym is not A/C, but inexpensive & is the home gym to some world class athletes. Shane Straton is a former Mr. Universe, his wife, Diane Jardin Stratton, a former Ms. World Figure & several time Ms. Australia Figure + Dennis James calls the gym home.

I've used that same pharmacy that BC recommends. Viagra 450 baht each. Seem to be 500 baht elsewhere.

 

 

 

My mate uses BC's gym recommendation too. I think they have some sort of multiple voucher system... use so many, get one free sort of thing.

 

Good luck, mate.

Thanks. Has anyone got any info on generic viagra (indian or chinese brands) ? Should these be avoided or is the product exactly the same. What is the difference in cost ?

 

 

 

Also, plenty of girls on the beach rd ??

 

 

 

Regards,

100mg Vitamin V available at the drug store next to Tim's bar for 1800 baht per 4. Genuine deal, still in the sealed Phizer pack. They also have the fake Indian ones, about a quarter of the price of Viagra, but have never tried them so don't know the score. Plenty of freelancers on Beach Rd at the moment, from about soi 13 down to the pier especially. Also loads of girls wandering around Walking St from about 2:30 to 3:30am. Someone else can give you the "be carefull" lecture!!.

Hi, I always use the larger of the two pharmacies next to Friendship on South Pattaya Raod, 1 minute from walking street. The people who own it are nice and sell genuine viagra for around 500 baht.

 

 

 

Also agree about Universe gym, hot but a pretty good place to go training. I have also been to a large gym up by the weekender resort. They have a Thai boxing school there also and loads of bags to use if you feel like it.

Hi!

 

 

 

There is also a pharmacy on walking street opposite to a gogo which I think is "Pretty Lady". They to take 500 foa 100 mg pill. Don't go to the large pharmacy close by. The idiot there told me to go to a hospital.

If you need a gym with AC (I need because I run on the treadmill), I would suggest the gym in the Royal Garden Mall. The fee is in the range of 500 baht for the day - it is free if you stay at the Marriott.

chevin gym has two floors, two full sets of equipment, and four ellipitical trainers by true fitness technologies. they open at 8am. they are located across from the day night hotel II, on the soi that runs south from pattaya tai, between the thai farmers bank and the defunct day night department store, off set across pattaya tai from soi buakao. you can get 20 visits for 1200 baht (if you don't go every day), or, i think, 1200 baht a month.
