I’ve been sick again this week, and being sick gave me an ear infection. My doctor’s visit resulted in a trip to the pharmacy, which ended with the man behind the counter handing me this bag:
This is the second time I’ve been prescribed something in Korea, and I wanted to make sure I posted a picture of the medicines. They come presorted for you, each dose already organized into a little wax paper baggie. They’re all connected in a chain, and you tear off your dose along the perforation. Then you rip the bag open and take your pills.
My doses seem to be the same this time, but last time I had different amounts of different things depending on the dose, and the breakfast dose was measured out, and the lunch one, and the dinner one. It’s kind of nice that I don’t have to sort them all myself. (I wouldn’t know how to anyway, I’m sure! I still don’t know exactly what I’m taking, but I’m sure I’ll be alright.)
Anyway, here’s what part of a bag string looks like:
Both interesting and handy, huh?
