Can anyone tell me if Disprin (Aspirin) is available over the counter in my local chemist and if so what should I ask for when I go to buy it?
Thanks,
Blade. |

I need to bump this post pleeease because I have an annoying toothache and the crap I've been given over the counter so far (Diapen) isn't working.
There HAS to be Disprin or something!
Thanks in advance. |

You can get asprin (acetylsalicylic acid) at any pharmacy.
Ask for Asprin. They may not understand your non-konglish pronunciation but they can read it if you write it (it is written in English on the box).
They usually stock the Bayer brand (500mg). It comes in a green and white box (10 tabs for 2000 won). |

Excellent - no he didn't understand the word yesterday when I asked for that. I'll try again. Thanks a lot! |
