Health and safety forum

Hi all, I'm currently in the midst of planning a 6-month trip to SE Asia which begins in January. Although I'm remaining extremely flexible with my schedule, I hope to visit Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam during my time, although in all honesty I could end up pretty much anywhere in the area =)

I have a question regarding a couple of prescribed medicines which I sometimes use here in the UK. They are:

Stemetil / Prochlorperazine - a sort of "anti dizzy" tablet I've used in the past when having the occasional feeling of lightheadedness.

Elocon / Elomet cream - similar to Hydrocortisone cream, I've used before to help treat odd cases of dermatitis.

I just want to know - are these freely available over the counter at pharmacies in SE Asia, and would carrying them between countries pose a problem to the powers that be? I realise I'm not talking about class A narcotics here but feel free to humour me =)

Failing that, I could easily get them prescribed here in the UK and travel over with them, but would I then need to take any sort of doctors note or prescription to accompany them?

I'm pretty sure from what I've read here and there that such medicines should easily be available over the counter hassle free, but would be grateful if anybody could clarify this. Thanks!
