Why would you be embarrassed or need to muster up courage for making a perfectly normal (and legal) transaction?
Last time I was in BinSina they had 20 MG Cyallis only so I ended up discussing generic options with the female pharmacist. One of her colleagues then made some other recommendations, including something which keeps you going longer. I found them to be quite knowledgeable and eventually ended up buying a generic option made in Italy which was available in 5 MG and cheaper than the branded options.

On 5th attempt, and the night almost here, had to make a move, so needed alot od courage to ask the female pharmacist for it with 3 of her female colleagues all standing around her winking. Even with a customer next to me, she loudly asks how much MG I wanted of the pill, LOL. I survived that one. Grabbed the condoms as well and off I go.

Dude. You need courage to buy something? Was it your mom and sisters in the pharmacy, or just some complete randoms you'll never see again in your life?

This is correct. When I have an urgent need and don't feel like going to the pharmacy, I just ping their whatsapp number (Bin Sina) and it is delivered to my room within an hour. Dubai is such a convenient place.

No I am not using an online number. The number in question is actually a sim number which is why I found it strange. One thing I do do is that I delete my WhatsApp account after I finish for the day and then reopen it when I'm feeling the itch again. Not sure if this type of activity would flag it.

WhatsApp just says I was banned for being a spam account. But the ban always gets lifted after I request a review within 24 h. Learnt to have a backup number now.

Go into any pharmacy, they have it behind the counter. Ask the pharmacist. I've never had an issue at different pharmacies.

Thank you for your advise Blood Red. Got what I wanted and used it optimum over last two days in Dubai. Wish this was as simple in Doha.

If the driver is not necessary, try renting from Hertz and Europcar. They have pickup offices all around dubai and I find the price very reasonable. I personally use europcar. I fly emirates, pick up the car at terminal 3 after landing and return it when leaving. Book online and give a copy of your passport and drivers licence upon arrival.
