Thanks |

Yes, Doxy is widely available at most chemists where I looked for it (at least in Delhi and most large towns)
Haven't taken any for quite some time, so I can't recall how expensive a strip of 8 or 12 tablets cost, but it's really cheap. Mmm let me call the local chemist up... Rs 38 for a strip of 8, for a box with 20 strips it's Rs 740. And in my experiences with the chemists here never have they once asked for a prescription for D. cheers, Tak
