With the continuous development of the Internet, there are more and more types of online shopping, and the convenience that online shopping can provide to people is also increasing. Food to eat, clothes to wear, shoes to wear, furniture to use, as big as socks, toothbrushes and so on. It can be purchased through the Internet.
Yes, of course, many people want to say that drugs can also be bought online, but the drugs available online are limited.
As we all know, even if you buy medicine in a drugstore, some medicines can't be bought casually, because there are prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs. You can only buy prescription drugs if you get a doctor's certificate. On the other hand, pharmacies are different from other stores. Everyone's physique and symptoms are different, and the drugs they need are different. Pharmacies often have professionals to give correct advice.
It is also very important that pharmacies are different from other stores. As consumables, drugs are very expensive. There are many choices for a few dollars in the supermarket. But pharmacies have little choice. Some imported drugs are even hundreds of thousands. People who have patients at home spend most of their expenses on medicines. Some diseases require long-term drugs, and some drugs are not covered by medical insurance. With the progress and development of society, people's pressure is increasing, the probability of suffering from various diseases is increasing, and more and more drugs are needed, so the existence of pharmacies is necessary and reasonable.
This is also why pharmacies survived when many stores were facing bankruptcy.
