Are common prescription medications available in Mexico?
When we asked expats in Mexico if common prescription medications are available in Mexico, they wrote...
"Yes, common prescription medications are available in Mexico. Many of the same medications that are available in the United States are also available in Mexico, although they may be sold under different brand names. In addition, some medications that are not available in the United States may be available in Mexico. It is important to note that some medications may require a prescription from a Mexican doctor, while others may be available over the counter," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Mexico.
"Pretty much. Cheaper than USA costs and many different pharmacies. Guadalajara and Aahorra," commented one expat who made the move to Queretaro City and Tequisquiapan, Mexico.
