Hi,

The medicine that you're asking about contains "moringa oleifera" as the active ingredient, which is an herbal compound. I'm not sure if the Suadi law allows pharmacies to keep herbal products because it doesn't fall within the allopathy. You should go to a nearby pharmacy and ask for "moringa oleifera", if they don't have it simply ask if are allowed to keep herbal products, if not you won't find it at any pharmacy. However, if they are indeed allowed to keep the herbal products you should be able to find it as long as you know the name of active ingredient.
