Medication in Qatar

Post new topic

³¢´Çﳦ

Good morning everyone,

Whether it's a simple cold or a chronic illness, medication and medicine use vary from country to country and culture to culture.

When you are used to certain brands or types of drugs, being in a country like Qatar with different rules can affect your daily well-being.

Some drugs also differ in name, price, dosage, active molecule, so we would like to hear your opinion on these issues:

Have you ever had difficulties finding familiar or useful medicines for your health in your host country?

Have you ever been faced with a shortage of medicines in Qatar?

Would you have said that in Qatar drugs are more or less expensive than in your home country? Do you find them more or less effective or of similar quality?

What is the place of alternative medicines in your host country? Have you ever used them?

Thank you in advance for your feedback,

Medications all over the world except US is cheaper.  Another thing I have noticed is that also medicine in another country are helpful but here doesn't do anything to make you feel better.  I don't trust medicine here in the US.  I prefer to buy medicine from outside.

Hi
From my experience I can confidentially say that medicine in Qatar is much cheaper and available all time. We never faced any shortage. As the government here support health treatment to all people
