Are common prescription medications available in Kathmandu?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Kathmandu if common prescription medications are available in Kathmandu, they wrote...

"Common prescription medications are generally available in Kathmandu. The city has numerous pharmacies and drug stores where you can find a wide range of medications, including antibiotics, pain relievers, and medications for chronic conditions. However, the availability of specific medications may vary, and it is recommended to bring a sufficient supply of any essential medications when traveling to Kathmandu. It is also important to note that the quality and authenticity of medications may not always be guaranteed, so it is advisable to purchase from reputable pharmacies and to consult with a local healthcare professional if needed," remarked another expat in Kathmandu, Nepal.
