Frequently asked questions about our services

What is a generic drug and why does it cost less than the original?

A generic medicine is a drug that contains the same active ingredient, the same dosage, and the same posology as an already marketed drug whose patent has expired. Developing new molecules and testing their effectiveness and safety requires significant investment, which is why the price of the original includes the recovery of these costs.

Generic medicines cost less because they do not incur research and development expenses, while still having the same effectiveness, guaranteed by the state.
What is phytotherapy?

Modern phytotherapy preparations are derived from plant material, either fresh or dried, through extractions using various solvents and methods. Some preparations consist of extracts from single plants, while others are combinations of extracts from different plants.
How does the home delivery service work?

We offer free home delivery. For ordered medicines, with two daily delivery rounds, we ensure prompt supply, either on the same day whenever possible or within 24 hours at the latest.
Is it possible to measure blood pressure in a pharmacy?

Of course, at any time of the day, preferably not after heavy exertion or immediately after a meal. To ensure comparable results, it is best to measure blood pressure at the same time each day.
