Try Maalox Plus...Originally posted by Ray2:no
but one doesn't take antibiotics for gastric
what he needs is just some antacid

yah lor, that's why he asks whether got phamacies that open 24 hours. then my question is why go and find the medicine after midnight? stand by some at home, problem solve already loh.Originally posted by huiz:but antacids can be easily found in phamacies like guardian. dun need prescription one?
$45 consultation fee. $20 for several pills.. what I meant is that I could have gotten the normal gastric pills at guardian pharmacy for $1.50... of course I should have stock up.. if I knew I am going to get gastric. but I didn't have gastric for a long long time.. it came quite sudden and it is silly to pay so much. Why couldn't I just walk into the clinic and ask for the pills without any consultation??!!Originally posted by dragg:are you sure?
$2 and $65.

cannot. unless u're on long-term medication.Originally posted by dragg:of course you can.
just tell him what you want.
its a controlled drug?Originally posted by sinicker:cannot. unless u're on long-term medication.
the doctor will take out ur records.. see when was the last time they gave u the medicine.. how many did they give u the last time.. what's the date today and see whether u quietly could have taken an overdose or not..Originally posted by dragg:its a controlled drug?
MIW will tell you we have to pay them what they are worth.Originally posted by macjoe:Have.
Mustafa Shopping Centre. 24 hrs.
Pharmacy is closed after office hrs but general medicine section is open. Have charcoal pills, wei sian you, antacids.
Imo, GP doctors should not be charging so much for a common ailment like gastric.
Next time when in pain, think Mustafa!!!![]()
