Pharmacy purchases in Malaysia

[Tetra77]

Hey bro.. do you have a particular shop to buy your medications ?

 

Thanks =)

I bought them from Kulai, Johor. It's called AM/PM Pharmacy. They have a 2 branches in Kulai. Not sure about other areas though

I buy glucosamine regularly and the best deals in terms of active ingredients concentration compare to price can be found at iherb.com

 

They have a large variety of supplements at a cheaper price and very reliable shipping. Once my package was lost and was untrackable. They immediately refunded me when the package was posted back to them. Kudos to their customer service.

 

First time purchase using coupon code KEB313 entitles you to a USD$10 off. If you purchase more than USD$60, there's a 5% discount and free shipping to Singapore through Singpost registered mail. Under USD$60, the shipping is only USD$4.

 

Buy the way, buying medications in Malaysia is indeed cheaper and without the need for pesky prescriptions.. Getting my regular diabetic and high blood pressure medication in Malaysia really saves me a substaintable amount over time.

 

 

Ya I also get my Highblood n diabetes madicine there. Abt half the price compared to the polyclinic n the medicine is exactly the same. I showed the polyclinic doctor n he said its OK.

 

I also got my vitamins n suppliments from JB. Much cheaper than SG.

 

Funny how our "subsidized" medicine can b more expensive than those sold at normal prices in JB?

 

Last time I bought from Kota Bahru was even cheaper.

It's based on market subsidies mah.

 

By the way, drug companies do sell medicine in developed countries at higher price than developing and 3rd world countries. Singapore considered developed country liao, thanks to our inflated GDP.

Then I feel sorry fr all those poor pple who go polyclinic n pay premium prices especially those who dun hv the opportunity to go JB to buy medicine.

 

Ty pay more than what the rich r paying in JB.

 

SG really is a very expensive place to survive.

The price here is controlled to be artificially high.

Then "subsidize" downwards.

 

Not unless you're subsidizing 90%, it won't be cheaper than JB with its free competition.

 

And then you need prescription "for your safety", so doctors, pharmacies, hospitals...all get a big cut and profit in medicine price.

Ya the "system" here makes everything much more expensive. All prices artificially inflated to suck more n more money from the poor joe in the street.

 

Is this how our gharmen serves n protects its pple?

Gahmen is pro-business first.

 

Everyone needs to make money...and lots of it.

So you can pay your COE, ERP, Condo, private property.

Thats why now ty say ty looking to make healthcare more reasonable.

 

I think this also is a load of BS from them. They give back here sure wil take double from there.
