We've used this stuff which is widely available in HH although there are fewer to select from:

Montsford,
Welcome to the board. I don't know where you are from, but I am from the UK and when I took my wife and baby to the UK last year there were no formulas the same there and here at all. However that may only be Hua Hin - Bangkok normally has more choice in everything so what you are looking for might be available, but I have never seen it. There may well be a comparable one, or even the same one marketed in different packaging. If it is a big concern for you, contact the makers of the brand where you live and ask them if it is available in Thailand. I hope that is of some help.

We used Similac and it's available in all the major stores such as Tesco, Villa etc. Also used it for my first two some 30+ years ago and it was good then.

Did some research recently before shipping some off to a friend in China and after testing, no melamine found. The powered Similac sold in Asia is produced and canned in Ireland. Pete :cheers:
