I went in hoping to coherently explain in my very mid French why a pharmacist at another pharmacy was only able to fill half of a prescription for my aunt (based on what that pharmacist had told me, in French, as I understood it). The look from the first of the two pharmacists at Place Rèpublique who helped us was that stereotypical French, chin down, eyebrows up, "Dear God, I have to deal with another tourist today?" face. But it only lasted a split second. She and her colleague looked at my aunt's paperwork, figured out the deal, and took care of us in short order. They answered all our questions, even the dumb ones (eg, "Are these mints Italian? Can you tell me what flavor they are? What does this [Italian word] mean?") I appreciated not only their help but also their patience.

Another guy wandered past hoping to go in also. No luck. I sat on a nearby bench hoping that someone was running late. At 9am the lights came on. I felt vindicated in my choice to wait it out, but when I presented my prescription, I learned that the medication was out of stock. 0/2 on this place when I already felt awful was an EPIC fail.

La pharmacienne qui nous a accueillis était elle-même déjà ÉNERVÉE. Elle a clairement un problème avec moi et mon petit chien. Elle a refusé de m'aider avec une ordonnance qui se trouvait dans mon téléphone, m'a vendu pour 40 euros de médicaments et m'a dit que j'avais un solde IMPAYÉ de 10 euros auprès de votre pharmacie ? Je n'en avais jamais entendu parler, mais je voulais juste un soulagement, alors j'ai accepté. Puis, environ une heure et demie plus tard, je suis revenue avec une autre ordonnance et elle était SUPER, SUPER désagréable : elle a marché devant nous et nous a ignorés, puis elle a crié que mon chien l'avait MORDUE. Elle s'est mise à hurler devant tous vos clients, disant qu'elle avait besoin de mon passeport pour déclarer un accident du travail dans votre pharmacie. Le chien NE L'A PAS mordue ! Elle portait un jean épais et elle m'a demandé mon numéro de téléphone pour déposer une plainte. C'est de la DISCRIMINATION envers les immigrés et je vais porter cette affaire à l'attention de l'ambassade américaine. Je la licencierais pour nous avoir harcelés et pour avoir menti.

Oh my goodness, this place is insane! Heard about this place from fellow Yelpers and made sure to…read morehave it as a stop during my visit in Paris. When I got there... there was a tourist bus parked outside and super packed inside! It was a tourist stop and filled with a lot of Asians with huge carts filled completely with products! I have to say, I stopped by several Pharmacies in my area before hitting this one up, and this place was so overwhelming! There was so many products from so many different brands, I didn't know what half the things I was looking at was! They have these little sheets posted with French, Korean and Chinese about the products and what they do. Unfortunately, nothing in English. There are a lot of pharmacists all over the place and some of them are very helpful, while others would rather spend their time talking to each other. There are several that speak a lot of different languages, I think I heard Korean and Japanese, and most of them speak a little bit of English. They have rotating deals so make sure you check out a couple of other pharmacies so you know if you're getting a good deal. This pharmacy had the most good deals, so if you only have time to go to one Pharmacy, I would suggest this one. Probably a good idea to go right when they open, because midday, with the tour buses parked outside, there is really no room to stroll around the place. I was always bumping into people and you can't stand in one place without people trying to squeeze by. Got some bioderma 2 pack 500 ml each for a little over 15 euros, they have some great gift sets too from bioderma, nuxe and caudalie. I got a pretty decent gift set with la roche posay sunscreen 50 spf 50 ml and it came with an aerosol thermal spring water spray 50 g for 8 euros. Lot of other great things here, the selection is pretty spectacular. TL;DR: if you only have time to visit one pharmacy, this is the one to visit. Make sure you go early and avoid all the tourists/tourist buses. There's a metro stop leading right to the front of the store, so easy transit if you buy a lot. Great deals! You could easily end up being here for hours if you don't go in knowing exactly what you need!

Firstly most of la Roche posey as well as some other highly rated skincare was out of stock. The ladies staff in the skincare is highly unprofessional and don't want to help. There was 10 ladies on the floor and this happened multiple requests and including long wait times. They were chatting amongst each other , laughing and pretended to not speak English period. Finally one kind lady who was honest to her job her name is Marriana( she was amazing in her knowledge of skincare and helpful) However, health section is a must visit. This is not very close to touristy areas so taxi would be a must or metro if you are familiar. Phone issues / roaming etc should be considered as i had trouble finding a taxi on the way back

The aisles are small and I think if I had…read moregone a bit later in the day, I would have been incredibly overwhelmed as even with few people, there wasn't much space. People recommend CityPharma as the cheapest pharmacy all over Tiktok and Reddit. From going into multiple smaller pharmacies (probably 10+) and also comparing prices with Pharmacie du Forum Des Halles (much larger store with larger selection) and comparing with Pharmacie Monge Notre Dame, the prices were more or less the same between these 3 larger pharmacies (some products would be a few cents or a euro cheaper at one or the other for each pharmacy listed). The prices are definitely more expensive at the smaller pharmacies unless you find a special deal on a specific product. CityPharma sometimes has special deals for buying multiple products of a certain brand, but there were none when I went. If you want a more leisurely, spacious, and calm shopping experience, I would recommend going to Pharmacie du Forum Des Halles since there is way more space and employees to help you and prices are similar.
