Pharmacies

A person making a purchase at a pharmacy counter

The pharmacist performs many diagnostic services and dispenses medicines. Prescriptions are not necessary. It is good to remember that medicines like aspirin and toiletries like hair coloring and toothpaste are only available in the pharmacy. Birth control pills are sold without prescription; all feminine hygiene and birth control substances are considered very private matters.
