Newmarket Day Night Pharmacy

So it is 9:30pm and you need pharmacy medication or something that only a pharmacy supplies, what do you do? Even though the 24 hour Countdown on Quay Street has a pharmacy they stop dispensing at 9pm. It is at this point you come to realise that there are not many late night pharmacies around Auckland.
I have not had to come here under such dire circumstances, I keep in good health and manage to keep myself out of trouble. I did come here with a friend of mine last week in search of a product for a skin infection. However, just because I took human pathology papers at uni does not qualify me to make qualified recommendations on what type of medicinal supplies one needs based on my limited knowledge so we came here. The pharmacist was lovely, after explaining the situation she offered her expert opinion and that was that. Wonderful service and they have hours that cater for the unexpected. Not everyone is going to be sick and diseased or maimed within the usual retail trade hours of 9 – 5.

Okay, so if you’re going to a pharmacy at night, you’re probably feeling pretty much like you need to be seen to semi urgently and it can’t wait ’til the morning. So maybe you’re not A&E bad, but you’re not good. This is why Newmarket Day Night Pharmacy is the man. It’s open ’til 11pm every night which means hypochondriacs can go and get their mysterious flu medication after dinner and not feel panicked the whole night.
Also good for that emergency prescription you need filled because you’re leaving the country early the next day.
Other than the long opening hours, the pharmacy is pretty much like every other one. Stocks the same things and staff are pretty nice considering they’re there late at night dealing with stressed sick people.
