What's the difference between a pharmacy and a pharmacy ~ please ask the gods

In the past, there were only pharmacies in China, but there were no pharmacies! After the introduction of western medicine and medicine in the late Qing Dynasty, shops specializing in western medicine began to appear in China. In order to distinguish Chinese medicine from western medicine, Chinese medicine shops are still called Chinese medicine shops and western medicine shops! After the founding of the People's Republic of China, pharmacies and pharmacies continued the above differences, and the older generation will never make a mistake! After the reform and opening up, Chinese medicine gradually got into trouble, and the operation of Chinese medicine shops was bleak. In order to survive, they expanded their business scope and even bundled some department stores and food! In the increasingly fierce competition, western pharmacies have also begun to sell some traditional Chinese patent medicines with obvious curative effects and high visibility. Similar to Chinese pharmacies, western pharmacies have also begun to tie in a large number of food and department stores! At this point, there is no difference between Chinese and western pharmacies! Since private pharmaceutical companies entered the pharmaceutical market, the above situation has intensified!
