    In general,are over the counter drugs like nexium more expensive in Ecuador, should we bring a large supply with us? How about pricing of prescription drugs, more or less than in the US?

    Hi Steve. Rather than speak in generalities, since some are cheaper and some more expensive, here’s a link you may find helpful. It is for Fybeca, a local pharmacy chain. There is a search box up top, where you can search for the drugs in questions. IF they are available here, you will also get pricing.

    It is in Spanish, but your browser probably provides translation. May not be necessary, it is pretty straight-forward. Remember you may need to use the generic drug name, rather than the brand name. Although I did, for example, just find Nexium 20MG listed, box of 14 tablets for $18.62 ($1.24 ea).

    Hope that helps!
