Drugstores

Look for the big red ‘A’ signs (for Apotheke). It’s worth remembering that prescriptions and over the counter drugs can only be purchased at Apothekes; you can’t, for example, buy aspirin at the supermarket. When the shops are closed, Apothekes display the address of the nearest open drugstore in their window. Note: a "Drogerie" does not sell medicines, but cosmetics, baby food etc.
