In Reply to: Bali staff that replaces Imodium posted by Fun Trecker on Thursday, 7. February 2008 at 16:23 Bali Time:
Hi again everyone, firstly thanks to all of you who have given advice. I became convinced that the best way to go was to buy stuff in Bali if the need arose. Surely if you explain your symptoms to the pharmacist, they will give you what you need. However, if you are on regular medication, as I am, can you have confidence that what is given will not have negative effect? We all know that mixing different medicines can have adverse effects, as has just now been revealed in the tragic case of Heath Ledger, so what do you think, should people on existing medication only go for brand names that we know here or do pharmacists in Bali have the expertise to advise? Don't wish to drag this thread on forever but would like thoughts on this. Thanks again, all replies appreciated. Yak
