The Korean medical system separates prescribing and dispensing of medication. Drugs are divided into prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs. You can purchase general medical supplies, such as digestive medicines, nutritional supplements, vitamins, health drinks, and cold medicines, without a prescription.
You cannot purchase medicines with a prescription issued by a hospital in other countries. If you are allergic to certain drugs, consult your healthcare professional in advance to avoid the risk of unwanted side effects. You may bring enough prescription drugs for your needs before entering Korea if you are taking any.
