A pharmacy, especially one used over time, isn’t like other stores. We go there with our frailties and private needs and come to see them as being auxiliary to our families. We depend on them to get scarce medicines, to stretch prescription rules in emergencies, and even to give advice for issues that seem too minor for a doctor’s visit. We also use them for food needs.

The fancy new stores carry dairy products and dried fruits, but there’s sustenance even in more medically-oriented products, like biscuits that’re sold as protein supplements but whose odd taste some people actually like. There are also creative ways to use quasi-medical products (this is, obviously, not recommended for prescription medicines).
