What you’ll learn

  1. You'll say what hurts and ask for something for it.
  2. You'll hand in a prescription and understand how and when to take the medicine.
  3. You'll find a pharmacy at night and buy a thermometer, plasters and a bandage.

You'll find pharmacies almost everywhere in Bulgaria. Many medicines are sold only with a doctor's prescription, but for minor problems the pharmacist can advise you. In the evenings and on holidays, duty pharmacies stay open. This is a language lesson, not medical advice: for anything serious, see a doctor or call 112. Rules change — ask at the pharmacy. Dosages in the dialogues are language examples.
