We'll be moving to PP this summer. My child was taking buproprion (Wellbutrin) for symptoms of ADD and it was working beautifully. However, I was told it isn't available in Cambodia.
I'm wondering which meds are available for ADD/ADHD, if any.

For a few years, I tried many pharmacies in Phnom Penh. I was only able to find Ritalin. Small dose (10mg?). $3 per tablet. And not extended release. The person needing it would have had to take at least 3 per day at specific times. Not feasible, too expensive, and no guaranty of it being in stock when needed.
I would recommend coming over with as much Wellbutrin as possible, then go back and restock. Also very expensive, and with possible future Covid issues, probably very risky. You might be able to do quick roundtrips to Bangkok, but I don't know.
I think anyone who needs a consistent supply of specific meds might want to choose another country to move to, imho.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help!

I am sooooo very sorry if you can't understand or appreciate my sarcastic facetiousness.
