Seiryu’s Japanese Pharmacy System, now available in PH

In this pandemic time, health workers have been recognized as modern-day heroes. They are on the frontline of defense against the Covid-19 virus.

But among the ranks of health workers in the country, the pharmacists are less recognized for their critical role in healthcare. They seem to be known as mere salespersons who dispense medicines at a drugstore. 

Not with SEIRYU JAPANESE PHARMACY.

“Pharmacists are health professionals specializing in the use of medicines,” says Seiryu Japan Co-Founder and Seiryu Philippines President Cristine May Sy-Kaneko. “They are familiar with the chemical composition and mechanism of medicines, as well as the possible side effects of its usage. They dispense prescriptions and counsel patients on the safe and appropriate dosage of their medicines.”

Recognizing the important role of pharmacists in helping customers get the best results from their medications, Seiryu Pharmacy boasts of its signature Japanese Pharmacy System. This highlights doctor–pharmacist relationship, where pharmacists address patients’ concerns after they visit the Doctor’s clinic.

According to Seiryu Philippines Business Consultant Eco Castro, it’s a unique concept in healthcare whereas doctors and pharmacists work together for the recovery and wellness of patients.

“We are proud to claim that Seiryu is the only pharmacy with a VIP Lounge in the country,” boasts Castro. “It is where the patients are given more privacy and personal consultation. We believe that patients’ road to recovery becomes faster if they are in a more caring environment.”

Kaneko has over 45 years of experience in building and operating pharmacies in Japan. Today, it already has six (6) outlets in Japan.
