One of the most popular questions on this forum thread, look through.
What to buy - what the doctor ordered (or analogues of the prescribed).
You can stock up on antipyretics, Laripro (this is for the throat), vitamins
аватар Vika284
There was a discussion here many times, here in this link of questions and answers there is both a name and analogues

Do not take a lot of medicines (no more than 10 packs), they can be wrapped at customs when flying home.
аватар iren77
Panadol extra
day/night cold
Ointments for pain in the joints, back
Toothpastes

What you usually use, I advise you to download the Egyptian medicines application and there you can find medicines, their analogues and, most importantly, prices in pounds, and if you show this price in pharmacies, they most often sell it because the price of medicines is regulated by the state even in private pharmacies
аватар iren77
And don't forget to bargain
аватар lenokua
If you know the price and you don't have to haggle
аватар vezha2
Even better - buy at a state pharmacy, prices are fixed there
Write the name of the hotel - we will make a route to El Ezabi pharmacies (state)
аватар mindguru
If you do not know what medicines to buy, then it is better not to buy at all.

Only out of charm, prices have risen by an average of 2 times (embossed on the packaging). they say a virus and a strong raid on departure, carefully, they take everything away.
аватар Fancase
sip10 - what does it mean everyone is taken away? A commercial batch will probably not be allowed to be taken out in a suitcase, but according to the rules, I think there should be no problems ....
аватар Nusia
There are many videos on YouTube on this topic and even with prices, and decide what you need.

sip10, friends from Sharma returned two weeks ago, took away 2 packs of antipyretics, 2 ointments and 4 toothpastes. Turned over all luggage. Friends swore, the police came up, talked nicely with the customs officers and left without a single explanation. On their flight, many passengers had such a circus. Upon returning, friends wrote a request with a complaint to the consulate, there are no clarifications yet. ARBITRARY!!! Previously, this was not the case, even toothpaste was taken away ...

Probably, what is put not in hand, but in checked baggage, no one will interrupt.
аватар sip10
Now it’s a kapets and not an inspection, after all the TVs they also manually interrupt everything, you feel like a smuggler, They wanted to take away my teaspoon from me, I made a scandal, all the authorities went astray, but they say that no one orders a border officer, he said it’s impossible, it’s impossible. medicines were taken away from people. about, if in luggage, I can’t say anything. I only had a couple of packs in my luggage, then I took it.
аватар ntlgorenko
Now I am in Sharm. Both the guide and the pharmacy warn, no more than 50 packs. What to bring is up to you. Ask in Google what drugs are being transported and select, there is a detailed description of all drugs
аватар Lina.V-2007
Day night, you need to look at the components, if pseudoephedrine is in the composition, they will take it from us at customs and draw up an act. It's a drug and it's illegal.
аватар Lina.V-2007
And they don't take medicines in the luggage?
аватар Slav_na
for several days in a row, everything from the word in general was selected in the SHESh. even personal pills. in the courier group they said that the shmon was not for children
аватар iren77
what is it called in English? We brought Day-Night, but maybe it can’t be accepted?
аватар vferodoffv
From the head, from the stomach, antipyretic. medicines in luggage, nothing will be taken away. Well, the rest as needed
аватар Elenka08
Recently, there were several posts on FB about how the customs officers were furious. Even small amounts of medicines were taken away. Be sure to keep receipts and do not take too much
аватар super.mila2905
We bought drugs at the hotel pharmacy. Shop tours did not suit us, although our cunning people had already cleared this chip with medicines for a long time. They go on vacation with a list not only for themselves, but also for all relatives and friends.
I had a backache, I had Xefocam (Austria), a couple of pills, and other painkillers with me. I suffered for three days. When it became completely unbearable (walking normally, sitting somehow, lying down - I can’t get up), I bought lornoxicam (made in Egypt), the name of the drug is based on the active substance. I took one pill in the evening, got up calmly at night, took another one and forgot about the pain in the morning. This I mean that even in the imported drugs we sell, there is either no active ingredient at all, or only a smell.
That's what the death penalty for forgery means. Ours would be at least 5 years in prison!!!
I also bought aspirin, kollomak, zovirax, voltaren gel, diclak.
For the first time, buy a standard set: antipyretic, analgesic, for intestinal microflora. Just look for the active ingredient
аватар ollennka
People, you should at least stop self-medicating for the period of the pandemic. It is not necessary to throw painkillers and antipyretics, but to go to the doctor and establish the causes of pain and fever.
аватар V.Zolot
ollennka, we still try to get to the doctor .... And when my daughter lost her smell, taste and all the symptoms of the virus appeared, the Egyptian tablets "1,2,3" helped a lot. I myself did not really trust the composition of the drug, but I was led by the recommendations of the members of the forum. Now I regret that I took a little. The tablets really helped. And our doctors are even reluctant to answer Viber.
аватар agent_borabora
"go to the doctor and find out the cause of the pain and fever."
- For example, in Ukraine you have to sit all day to see a free doctor. And private clinics refuse to pay as soon as they find out the symptoms of a viral infection by phone.
аватар ollennka
Well, ok, I sympathize, I withdraw the proposal, taking into account the specifics of the country. But in general, feeding medicines to people (especially children) without a prescription is dangerous.
аватар super.mila2905
You might think that in your country the specifics are different
аватар ollennka
super.mila2905, what's the claim? Yes, doctors prescribe antibiotics in our country, you can buy less and less medicines in a pharmacy on your own. And it seems to me that this is a normal development of events, Ukraine will also come to this, I am sure.

Our friend constantly brings herself black cumin oil. From all diseases, he says, it helps. It's true ?
