    So,happy this worked out. Kudos to everyone!
    So afraid of needing an antibiotic while there and having to pay excessive amounts of money to see the resort doctor just to be told I have a sinus or ear infection when I know what it is already. So this pharmacy will help?

    Our Dr. gives us scripts to fill before we leave home. Some years we need the scripts some not. Just a thought.

    We bring antibiotics on every reach. She also likes to bring something in case of "wet bathing suit syndrome". It doesn't hurt that the wife is a nurse practitioner.

    Oh dear...Bruce is not a physician and cannot diagnose with giving him symptoms! Full assessment of allergies, other medicines or over the counter and individual conditions must be looked at! Proper channel is to see the Doctor. This advise can put someone in trouble quickly.....part of my services is guiding you this process. I can many time come and consult a physician LIVE to call in a script, for his small fee OR refer you where to go if you choose to travel out. Asking a pharmacist for a perscription ONLY, over the counter is a chance I wouldn't take! Nurse Beth

    Beth,

    If you read the thread in full, I was adding additional information to the previous post. I then posted my number in case the OP wanted to call back in February.

    The OP got their issue resolved without further help. No call necessary.

    I know Bruce is not a doctor since he is the pharmacist at Negril Pharmacy. He is not always there which is why I suggested asking for him directly if you go to the Negril Pharmacy.

    Going to a doctor should always be a first choice option. Your service is a great option as well and I know that you have been busy and wished you would have been able to respond to the OP back in February.

    Having been to my share of doctors and pharmacies over the last 57 years, I know that doctors know what to prescribe. And I know that pharmacists know more about drugs and interactions and have a direct working knowledge of the drug success rate.

    Even with a prescription, I always talk directly to the pharmacist about problems and symptoms as well as possible drug interactions.
