Hello,
I will be starting my first teaching job in South Korea soon and I have a question about medication that I have not found the answer to from my searches throughout this website and others. I currently take Straterra for ADD that I have stockpiled to last me about 6months, but not the whole year. I would like to remain on it if I can help, but it isn't a necessity. Does anyone know if this medication is offered at most pharmacies in SK, and if so would it be covered by the health insurance that schools provide? If anyone has had experience with this I would greatly appreciate your advice.

I seriously doubt it would be covered by health insurance. I would check it getting it via mail order. To get it prescribed here, you will most likely have to see a specialist. Big hassle. Good idea that you stocked up!
