Obtaining Medications

Go to the Outpatient Prescription Counter in the Entrance Hall. They will show you a map of pharmacies and ask which one you would like to go to, and then they will fax your prescription to the pharmacy you have chosen.
Pay for the medication at the pharmacy.
 

If you have a prescription for the hospital pharmacy：

At the Dispensing Counter on the Outpatient Ward 1F, show them your prescription and your medical fees payment receipt.
When the number on the top right of your prescription appears on the display panel, go to the desk and collect your medication.

 

Why you should use pharmacies outside of the hospital.

Patients are free to pick up their prescriptions when it is most convenient for them.
If a patient uses their regular pharmacy, the pharmacy staff are able to verify that the prescribed medications (and any over-the-counter products that are purchased) are compatible and there is no duplication of active ingredients. With the supervision that pharmacies provide for patients with a history of drug allergies, patients can feel confident that the medications they are taking are safe.
Clear explanations are also given about how to take prescription medications and any possible side effects that may be encountered.
Generic drugs are available.
 

Generic Drugs：

Generic drugs are recognized as having the same effectiveness as their name-brand original formulations. Also, because their development costs are lower, generic drugs are often much cheaper than their original counterparts. Anyone interested in taking generic drugs should consult with their physician.
