qooorange SG

Hi ...

Does anyone knows if there is any pharmacy that opens 24 hours? I got gastric pain and have had to go to clinic to get medication... cost me $65 !! wth. I could have gotten the pills from a pharmacy for $2.

Ray2 SG

got meh? not that i know of.

you know you have gastric problem, then stand by the medicine at home loh.

dragg SG

clinic, not pharmacies.

huiz SG

how abt 7-11 or cheers? got try?

ceecookie SG

do pharmacies sell antibiotics over the counter? Rolling Eyes

dragg SG

are you sure?

$2 and $65.

Ray2 SG

no

but one doesn't take antibiotics for gastric

what he needs is just some antacid

renorenal SG

Try Maalox Plus...

sbst275 SG

Dun think so

Because these are considered prescripted medicine

huiz SG

but antacids can be easily found in phamacies like guardian. dun need prescription one?

dragg SG

the thread starter is asking for 24 hr pharmacies.

Ray2 SG

yah lor, that's why he asks whether got phamacies that open 24 hours. then my question is why go and find the medicine after midnight? stand by some at home, problem solve already loh.

$45 consultation fee. $20 for several pills.. what I meant is that I could have gotten the normal gastric pills at guardian pharmacy for $1.50... of course I should have stock up.. if I knew I am going to get gastric. but I didn't have gastric for a long long time.. it came quite sudden and it is silly to pay so much. Why couldn't I just walk into the clinic and ask for the pills without any consultation??!!

clinic = place that sells medicine after doctor examines you.

pharmacy = place that sells medicine without doctor examining you. Wink

dragg SG

of course you can.

just tell him what you want.

sinicker SG

cannot. unless u're on long-term medication.

dragg SG

its a controlled drug?

sinicker SG

the doctor will take out ur records.. see when was the last time they gave u the medicine.. how many did they give u the last time.. what's the date today and see whether u quietly could have taken an overdose or not..

WiNtEr'SkiLL SG

no... none Mr. Green

macjoe SG

Have.

Mustafa Shopping Centre. 24 hrs.

Pharmacy is closed after office hrs but general medicine section is open. Have charcoal pills, wei sian you, antacids.

Imo, GP doctors should not be charging so much for a common ailment like gastric.

Next time when in pain, think Mustafa!!!
