The price of drugs varies considerably as here you pay the cost of the drugs themselves, not a flat fee like in the UK. Many pharmacies (I always use the big Chinese one on Chomsin) will offer both the generic and a non generic drug. Stock up with several months supply before you came and keep a cop...

Definately Bumrungrad
Go to their website , pick your doctor and you can make appointment on line. Very efficient and up to date, many doctors there have trained in UK or USA. More expensive than local ones but definately the best.

Er indoors takes Litozin for arthritis which she says helps quite a bit (for long term - not acute stages).
It is rose hip powder, litozine being the trade name
Not been able to get it here so have to buy it by the bucketful when we go to UK
