My two-week supply of Chinese herbal medicine prescribed at the ENT clinic ran out, so I went back last week. Although I saw a different doctor this time, the diagnosis was the same. It was just the usual seasonal dryness (perhaps age-related?), and my throat itself was clean and showed no problems. That was a relief, at least for now.
An old ENT clinic I used to visit years ago for allergic rhinitis moved to the second floor of a new building around last year, and it looks quite nice now. Last time, it was already rather late, and I thought my usual pharmacy would be closed. However, I was saved by the fact that there was a pharmacy on the first floor.
What really surprised me was that if you become friends with the pharmacy on LINE, you can send them a photo of your prescription in advance. They prepare the medicine for you, so you can pick it up at a convenient time without waiting. Even more surprising was that I could earn both docomo points and pharmacy points.
I was told that the pharmacy points could be exchanged for products available in the store. Interestingly, the items had nothing to do with medicine and were things like Korean cosmetics. I wondered if pharmacies now have to come up with various ideas just to survive. Since docomo points can also be used on Amazon, I was quite happy about that.
