Anti-Histamines

Hi could anybody recommend me to a Physician who doesn't charge $60 for a prescription?

This overcharging is just preposterous!

I need to buy my anti-histamine ampules for emergency use. Your help is greatly appreciated.Thanks

If you had Vietnamese help, this would save you a fortune. Like my wife, most Vietnamese have a trusty doctor who they can phone or visit. They describe what your after, and the doctor refers you to the corrrect drug (Proberly not the same brand name) but does the same trick, that you can get over the counter for a fraction of the cost. If like me at first, your not 100% with the drug advised, go on the internet and research, you'll proberly find it recomended along with the named drug your use to.

BTW, $60 is cheap, try SOS, they'll take the shirt off your back also. On top of the consultation fee, you pay top dollar for the drugs, only to peel the sticker back, and find you can get the same stuff for 20 bucks cheaper over the road.

The Korean Clinic on Chu Van An street is great. It's one block north of Dien Bien Phu in the Saint Paul Hospital (Xanh Pon Hospital)

Have you tried just buying them without a prescription? I don't know anyone who uses a prescription for anything here.

The pharmacy at the top of Pho Hue opposite Trang Tien Plaza is good and speak quite good English. If you have the name of the drug you need, they'll sell you anything without a prescription.
