When we asked expats in Ecuador if common prescription medications are available in Ecuador, they wrote...

"Yes, common medicines are found at the pharmacies and are often available without prescriptions. Medicine is fairly cheap," said another expat in Quito, Ecuador.

"Prescription medication is inexpensive and readily available. If you are on the typical 5 at 50 plan, you can come buy your meds have a nice vacation and still save money over doing the same in the U.S," wrote a member who made the move to Cuenca, Ecuador.
