GordonP Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Does anyone know if Melatonin is available over the counter in Thailand. Thank you in advance for any input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Yes some places have it. The place I checked they had one brand and it was vastly overpriced. So I suggest order on lazada.com. Lots of choices and much better prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutsiwarrior Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I've seen Cicardin 2mg various places and vastly overpriced...they useta carry the same stuff at the popular pharmacy near soi Nana next to the gas station...imported and classified as a 'food supplement' which probably accounts for the price... lazada.com have 'Natrol' 3 and 5mg for much cheaper, about the same as if you order from iHerb but without the shipping charges and delay...

To your home in two to three days with standard delivery from Thailand. No risk/hassle with overseas shipment. https://www.lazada.co.th/shop-stress-anxiety-and-depression/ (or search for Melatonin) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Mountain Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Definitely iHerb.com, more then half the price compared to Lazada. (Natrol, 3mg, 240 pcs). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Quote Insomnia. Research suggests that melatonin might provide relief from the inability to fall asleep and stay asleep (insomnia) by slightly improving your total sleep time, sleep quality and how long it takes you to fall asleep. https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-melatonin/art-20363071 If using for above wish you luck as it did not appear to help me at all. But "slightly" might be right. In any case much less than a single tylenol tablet (which I was trying to avoid) for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt1591 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I found it a waste of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonP Posted July 17, 2019 Author Share Posted July 17, 2019 Thanks for all the input. I am currently in UK where it is not available without a prescription whereas it is available over the counter across the water in France where I recently acquired a packet. I haven't had an issue with sleeping before however my body clock has been out of sync (might be an age thing) since returning from a 8 month stint in LoS. It worked for me, sorting out my sleep pattern in a couple of days (just 1mg tabs). I am due to return to LoS soon and wanted to know availability just in case. Thanks again to all for the info.
