V "No Perscription" Locations
[QUOTE=Eaglestar]More and more SH pharmacies are requiring Rx for "V" now days. So far no RX needed for "C" however.
Maybe some other Bros can steer you to a pharmacy that does not require Rx for "V". Only one I know is on Baihui Road near Biyun Road in Jinqiao Pudong.
ES[/QUOTE]ES is correct about the Pharmact on Baihua Lu. It's in the strip of buildings that includes a small video store, pet foor store, Biyuntang Massage joint (not recommended). The pharmacist (guy) speaks English. He only has the 5 'V' per box size. No singles. However, he does have 20mg 'L' in singles for 100RMB.
>>In Puxi, go to Portman Ritz Carlton. Find Starbucks there, and go to second floor by way of outside stairs (this is technically Shanghai Center). In the corner is Parkway Health, and next to it, Parkway Dental. There is a pharmacy right there. In the back of the pharmacy in the glass case (locked) they've got all you need; V, L, C. Ladies there speak English and have the keys. (By the way, the Long Bar is about 50 feet from the pharmacy.
>>In Pudong, a tougher location to find is near Shanghai East Hospital. The Hospital is immediately across form the Shanghia Stock Exchange. There is a street behind the hospital on a corner. Look for a Gree nPharmacy cross on the stroefront. Here is a link with a map down below. The red arrow on the map is about where the street with pharmacy is. This location is about 2 blocks from WP and 3 from Sacrosa. Note: you have to ask for it, as they keep it in a drawer. It's V in the 5 packs...real stuff. Ask the older ladey, the younger one(s) don't always understand. [url]http://www.seimc.com.cn/general/location.htm[/url]
