Yes, medicines are good.
The main thing is to know the active substance that you need to buy. Commercial names may vary. In the tourist regions of Turkey, almost all pharmacists understand Russian. There will be no problems with the purchase.

How do you turn from the "cold" for an adult in a Turkish pharmacy you can buy a combination of paracetamol and a combination of ibuprofen: catharin, teraflu, nurofen cold flu. They have an antipyretic, anti-inflammatory effect, relieves swelling with nasal congestion.

Yeah, they say and show. A year ago there were similar questions about Egypt. Self-medication is not necessary. A cold is not a diagnosis, but a set of symptoms that can be a bunch of diseases, including bacterial, fungal and viral infections (including the coronavirus that has set its teeth on edge). If everything is "treated" with paracetamol, it can lead to serious complications.

ollennka. Well, that's why I do not advise buying antiviral, antibacterial, antimycotic, hormonal, for the treatment of cardiovascular and oncopathologies, etc. without a doctor's prescription. Although I know the active ingredients very well. And paracetamol and ibuprofen, for example, antipyretic, can be purchased. Well, of course, that everything should not be taken lightly.

If you have a doctor's prescription and you take drugs all the time, you can buy exactly the same medicine or its analogue (according to the active substance).

I have never taken antiviral drugs, but I can confirm that medicines in Turkey are of high quality and are cheaper than their counterparts in Russia.

I always bring a mouthwash from Turkey. It's called Hexoben or Heksoben, I don't remember which one is correct. Better not met. I take the children, but I tried it on myself. It is sold in pharmacies without a prescription. We don't have anything like that (Ukraine).

All medicines are good. You can buy all sorts of paracetamols, and serious drugs.
It is a very strange idea to equate the purchase of medicines abroad with self-medication.
Every year I bring my mother a year's supply of the hormone, she has a life-long intake prescribed by a doctor 20 years ago.
A lot of people buy Plavix, it is also a lifelong drug for those who have had a heart attack, in Ukraine it is twice as expensive as in Turkey, in Russia - three times.
The whole "cold" mass of medicines - of good quality, good dosages and interesting combinations It got easier for a couple of hours.
We recalled HEKSOBEN above - this is a bimba for those who have a sore throat with ARVI, a combination of chlorhexidine with benzydamine.

About Plavix - that's all fine, but they don't make it in Turkey. If the author had in mind the purchase of the same drugs (not analogues according to INN), then I absolutely agree that much is cheaper in Turkey than in Russia, and this can and should be used. My colleagues always bought our Symbicort on business trips in Turkey, and there it cost 3 times cheaper.
I call self-treatment the purchase of analogues / generics at my own discretion. This is exactly the case when bioequivalence has never been proven, although the INN is the same. That is why the range goes from “keeps” 10-12 hours” to “does not work at all.” Independent replacement of the drug prescribed by the doctor, within the framework of the INN, is that kind of lottery.

Plavix is produced in Turkey. Last year, I gained a two-year supply, as if I knew that this year I would “cure” with a trip. Moreover, the pharmacy did not have the required amount. They wrote down the hotel, room number, the next morning they delivered everything missing to the reception.

Plavix is "native" French, Sanofi. Aspirin I bought Bayer.
In Kyiv, too, of the Bayer type, but, apparently, a "spill" for poor countries, if not a local basement.
Tantum Wrede is excellent, original, unlike ours, even the packaging is different.
Nizoral actually treats fungus, not just a white cream in a tube.
I’m already silent about the fact that our doctors have stopped prescribing the original Sumamed, and they prescribe its analogue - Azitro Sandoz or Kharkov Azithromycin in general, simply because the latter contains azithromycin, and the first is one chalk, a fake.
Perhaps the situation in Russia is different, but for a long time we have been buying everything that can be bought abroad, there. By the way, about bioequivalence - which paracetamol drug is considered the original, and which ones are generics? :)
According to experience, the German Paracetamol Ratiopharm turned out to be the most effective, in an unsightly package and with an inconvenient bottle, in second place is the British Kalpol. And ours continue to mumble - wait half an hour, an hour, two, Panadol will work ...

I also had to go to the pharmacy. I forgot at home and spazmalgon and noshpu. Instead of noshpa, they offered buscopan, manufactured by sanofi, and they also offered reflor, which turned out to be just a probiotic. Can't say it was cheap.

In Russia, the situation with prices is absolutely the same as in Ukraine - drugs are more expensive than in Turkey (I mean absolutely identical drugs from the same country of origin). This is a matter of legislative regulation, in Turkey prices are regulated for most or all drugs, in the Russian Federation - only for a relatively small list.
And in terms of prescribing, it seems that a few years ago, Russian doctors were obliged to prescribe drugs according to INN and, thus, they left the final choice of the drug at the mercy of the patient / pharmacist, which, frankly, looks wild.
Paracetamol was invented so long ago that even Google did not tell me what the original drug was called)). We will assume that only generics are now on sale.

It is better to have a quality generic than a falsified "original". Turkish captopril (in their version, captoril) reduces pressure by a count of times, unlike capoten-dummy from Russian pharmacies.

Since 2011, people in the Russian Federation have not been going to doctors with "envelopes". I can’t 100% vouch for Indian and Russian pharmaceutical companies, but European ones, including generic ones, have everything in this regard. But the pharmacists are just the weak link, the legislation regulates them a little less in terms of "shares" and gifts. Therefore, in Russia it is wiser to trust a doctor, and not a biased pharmacist.

And we have Dr. Komarovsky :) You can treat him differently, listen or not to the recommendations, but he definitely did one great good deed and continues to do it - to convey to people the idea that it is necessary to educate in medical terms and not take it for granted what doctors prescribe and recommend. It is precisely because of the imperfection of the legislation and the huge number of illiterate holders of medical diplomas that patients simply have to understand what exactly they are going to swallow or give to a child.
Very interesting about 2011! The law forbade medical representatives to see doctors and talk to them? Do the offices of all the pharmaceutical companies in the world just sit in both capitals and other large cities and pay hundreds and thousands of employees? The practice of the Brownian movement of medical representatives exists all over the world, it is even a serial ma'am, not our series, and not Russian :)

You are something in one heap interfere with the visits of medical representatives to doctors and bribes. I really sympathize if in Ukraine medical representatives only go to doctors with envelopes, you know better there on the spot. I'm talking about how things are in the Russian Federation. Here, pharmaceutical companies, whatever one may say, in addition to directly promoting their drugs and making a profit, are doing a very significant job of educating, educating and developing doctors and pharmacists.
And we ourselves have enough media people like Komarovsky, but not Malysheva and Malakhov will be responsible for the result of treatment, but still the attending physician.

"Envelope" is a broad concept. Call it "motivation" if you like, it can be very different. One fact - the doctor ceases to be a disinterested person.
Responsibility is a whole other issue. A doctor from a large private clinic, one of the best, comes to see her daughter. I listened, looked - SARS, drink, moisturize, knock down. OK well. Next - tsinabsin, aflubin ... I say - what kind of crap are you writing to me? "Oh, won't you give it? Well, you don't have to, right." What can I present to him and what responsibility should I call for? These pills are not forbidden to prescribe and they cannot harm either. To court with it? Komarovsky is absolutely right - just read, read and double-check what is prescribed. You don’t need him in the company of the Malakhovs.

2 billion per year turnover from the sale of Anaferon in Russia. Is this not the case with doctors? I do not think that all buyers prescribe it to themselves.
I did not find it for aflubin.

)))))) Oh yes, a great example of self-healing. Anaferon is non-prescription, its pharmacists in pharmacies just "prescribe" the "sick people" themselves. You can write Arbidol to the same company, thanks to extensive advertising on TV, citizens who "do not take it on faith" like to eat it without a doctor's prescription))).

How cute you turned out :)
Those who do not take on faith are those who are not too lazy to read and double-check, i.e. this is absolutely not the target group of aflubins and arbidols. As well as there is no dependence "over-the-counter drug = the doctor does not prescribe it." I gave you a specific example - a doctor prescribed aflubin to a child, I myself, "not taking it on faith", would never have thought of giving it.

)))) Perhaps, we just watch more TV, in the off-season all these aflubins and fuflomycins traditionally increase the rotation of commercials.
In my practice, there have not been any "feron" appointments by a doctor for ten years now. Now they don't even try to feed them with antibiotics from the first days of acute respiratory infections, they recommend symptomatic treatment in the first week. Sometimes all sorts of herbs and syrups are added to the treatment, but optionally, as an addition.
