    Medicines Available and Not Available at Japanese Pharmacies
    The handling of medicines at pharmacies in Japan may differ from other countries. Especially in Japan, medicines that are easily available over the counter in other countries may require a doctor’s prescription. This prescription system is established as part of Japan’s healthcare system to support the appropriate use of medicines and health management.

    It is important to have accurate knowledge about the handling of medicines that require a prescription in Japan. In this article, I would like to explain in detail about medicines that are not available over the counter at Japanese pharmacies and the types of medicines that require a prescription.
