Nhà Thuốc Nguyên Phước
Description
This is the pharmacy to know about if you’re staying near An Bang beach or anywhere in Hoi An and need medicine sorted quickly. The owner, Mr. Phuoc, and his staff speak solid English and take time to actually explain what’s in a medicine rather than just handing over the priciest box. That matters a lot when you’re traveling and can’t read Vietnamese labels.
Come here for mosquito bite relief, sore throat treatment, Smecta for stomach upsets, burn cream, cold and flu remedies, and antibiotics like Amoxicillin. A course of 14 Amoxicillin 500 tablets runs around 150,000 dong, and they’ll often swap a branded product for a generic with the same active ingredient at a lower price if you ask. They also stock a strong Aloe Vera gel worth grabbing for sunburn.
The real value here is the substitution advice and the willingness to explain dosage and drug interactions, something you won’t get at a random minimarket pharmacy. It’s not always the cheapest option in town, and a couple of customers have felt pushed toward pricier imported products like Korean probiotics when they wanted something simpler, so ask directly for the plain generic if budget matters and confirm the price before paying.
