Yes, you can get kamagra, the Indian version, at many of the non-branded pharmacies or Chinese style pharmacies close to the bars.

The Thailand GPO (Gov't Pharmaceutical Org) produces a version of sildenafil marketed under the name Sidegra.  It is a generic version of Viagra, with the same ingredients.  It is available in 50 and 100 mg tablets. 

The official government price for a box of 4 - 100mg tablets is 180 baht.  This being Thailand, many drug stores charge as much as they can for Sidegra.  If you are in Silom, a store that sells it for the correct price of 180 baht is the Chula MD Pharmacy, on Rama IV, between Silom and Suriwong.  If you are coming from the Silom / Rama IV intersection, pass the Crowne Plaza Hotel on your left, and soon you will see the Chula MD Pharmacy.  I have attached a photo of the shop front below from Google maps.

If you buy Sidegra from Chula MD Pharmacy, you know it's the genuine item, not a questionable counterfeit drug.  The Thai government began making Sidegra more than 10 years ago, and selling it for a low price to stamp out counterfeit brands of Viagra that were being sold at higher prices.

Does viagra make you last longer? I had an encounter once with a guy that maintained his hardness even after cumming.

It is true, as @daydreamer says, that you can get Sidegra for 180 baht per box of 4 tabs x 100mg at Chula MD, but I prefer to purchase from the shop next door whose Thai signboard looks like "ennuv" to me. It's visible in the photo above.

I think "ennuv" charges more though, but not by much. What I didn't quite like about Chula MD on my one and only visit were 2 things: it was very busy with a lot of thai customers and secondly, a rather bureaucratic process. Their counters have a queue system. You have to take a numbered ticket. Then payment has to be made at a separate counter. Can't remember exactly but I think I had to go to a third counter to pick up the purchase.

At the smaller ennuv shop, you're likely to be the only customer and you get the full attention of whoever is serving you. You're not sent here and there.

Yes, Chula MD pharmacy has a queue system.  You take a number, order, and then pay at a different counter, just a few feet away.  This is the old Thai-Chinese style, where only family members handle the money, and other employees wait on customers. 

The shop is busy with Thai customers, as @macaroni21 says, but I see that as a good thing.  Also, in a pharmacy with many customers, items don't sit on the shelf for long, ensuring a fresh stock of medicines, due to rapid turnover.

The photo from Google maps I posted is time-stamped 2021, during the pandemic.  At the time, customers were not allowed inside the store.  Orders were placed outside, and the items were delivered to tables placed on the sidewalk.  

As for the monk, I don't know what he was buying, but his saffron satchel is loaded with something.......

Not always a good idea. I have heard this story from Vietnam:  A young son back from the US launched a new business, partly funded by his parents. The business did well and expanded, and he hired a cousin to manage one of his new branches. The cousin began to misappropriate some money every month, but not so much that it would sink the business. Nonetheless, it was intolerable for the young entrepreneur, who obviously wanted to fire the cousin. However, his parents persuaded him to keep the cousin on, because firing that guy would cause a rift in the family. So, for months (years?) the cousin had free rein to the till. 

As often happens in such cases, he took more and more, but still the parents were against firing him. Finally, the cousin's mother died andwith that, the question of family rift became moot (I think the cousin's mother was the sister of the entrepreneur's mother) and so the cousin was sacked. By then however, he must have taken a lot of money.

The expiry date is clearly printed on the Sidegra box. Easily checked before purchase even if buying from a small pharmacy.

I have only once taken viagra. It left me with a form of pounding in the head which I did not like and which stayed with me for a few hours. On advice of friends, I switched to Tadalafil, better known as Cialis. I have no identifiable side effects and the great thing is it keeps one 'active' for a good 30 or more hours. The problem is that, i believe, it is still under a manufacturer's copyright and so hugely more expensive than generic viagra. There is a Thai generic named Talafil which is not much cheaper but seems to work as well. Does anyone know of a cheap version?

[macaroni21]

The patent on Cialis and tadalafil expired about 7-8 years ago. 

In Thailand, indian-made generic, branded as Apcalis, is widely available  from just about any shop that also sells Sidegra. About 300 baht per box of 4 tablets, if I recall correctly.

I think that's actually ยาหนึ่ง "ya neung" meaning something like "#1 Pharmacy"
