Recently, the topic of "drugstore drugs** are three or four times more expensive than those sold online" has sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Some industry insiders say that this phenomenon exists because the business operation model of pharmacies and online sales platforms is different.
It is reported that the operating costs of pharmacies are relatively high, including store rent, staff salaries and management fees. Online sales platforms usually don't have these additional expenses and are able to sell drugs at a lower rate. Therefore, the high drug ** in pharmacies does not mean that there is a malicious price increase, but corresponds to its operating costs and service expenses.
In addition, some medicines may need to be used under the guidance of professionals, which requires more services from pharmacies, which is also one of the reasons for the increase in **.
However, some consumers are dissatisfied with the high cost of drugs in pharmacies, believing that this affects their drug purchase choices. Some have suggested that pharmacies should increase competition with online platforms and minimize the number of drugs** to give consumers more choice.
To sum up, the higher drug level of pharmacies than online is not simply "stealing customers", but the embodiment of business models and services. It is hoped that a more balanced sales model can be found in the future, so that consumers can enjoy high-quality drug services without being dissatisfied because of excessive **.
