Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

The particular brand may not be available... but the same drugs are often available in generic name / or from a different company.... Any good pharmacist / shop can give alternative with the same composition.. You yourself can find it in google search!
There are a few names, but it is better to check for local availability...Telma-H is one example...
Combination of more than one drug is often necessary for most people...

Take care     
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
