Doxycycline in Kigali

Is doxy available over-the-counter in kigali and at what approximate cost? I usually wait until I'm in country to pick up most of my anti-malarial run because it is typically cheaper and want to know if that will be the same for Rwanda.

It's available OTC in Ruhengeri.

All should sell this over the counter,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Thanks, do either of you know the cost per pill?

Cost per pill - if you buy the generic versions which are found everywhere - negligible and hardly worth thinking about. The same goes for all the pharmaceuticals there.

Alaxin/Cotexin which cleared up my malaria (twice) in a day are around 7000FRW, which was the most expensive for any pills I encountered. If you get malaria then they are the pills you need (it's just dihydroartemisinin), available in most places over the counter.
