If you see the site of Indian MEDLARS Centre (The ICMR NIC Centre for BioMedical Information of the National Informatics Centre)you will get the entire list of such journals.
The WHO has several free e-resources.

You can also try the SEAMIC (South East Asian Medical Information Centre at Japan) They have an unique publication of searching the Medical Databases, how to prepare search strategies, the boolean logics etc. etc. etc.
There are several free materials from UNAIDS & well, there is free POPLINE databasea available from the ESCAP Office located at Raja Dammam Avenue, Bangkok.
