Plain and simple.

The article I've linked below, says that Thailand has some of the cheapest prices in the world for some generic and branded products. Unsurprisingly, the results show staggeringly high prices for many of the same drugs in the US.

The only thing I used a Thai pharmacy for are band aids and boner boosters - and both cost a quarter of the price as in the U.S.

If one has medical insurance in USA the cost of drugs can be very inexpensive. Also one can use discount cards at supermarkets, etc, where the cost of drugs are again inexpensive.
