What to buy at a pharmacy in Nha Trang for stomach issues / traveler's diarrhea?

TL;DR
Enterofu ril is not available in Nha Trang pharmacies, but nifuroxazide (same active ingredient) or nifuratel can be found as alternatives. Loperamide is widely available but only treats symptoms.
What the community said
Enterofu ril is unavailable in local pharmacies. Pharmacists recommend nifuroxazide — the same active ingredient as Enterofu ril — as a direct substitute. Nifuratel (Macmiror) is another option. Loperamide is easy to find everywhere but only masks symptoms without treating the underlying infection.

Mounjaro (tirzepatide) injections are not available over the counter in Nha Trang pharmacies. Vietnam strictly regulates this class of prescription medication, so it must be brought from home.

Sea buckthorn suppositories and sea buckthorn oil are not sold in Nha Trang pharmacies — these are specific to Russian pharmacy chains and are not stocked in Vietnam. Best to pack them from home.
