Yokota Pharmacy
This neighborhood pharmacy in Shibuya has earned a reputation for being particularly helpful to international customers. While smaller than major chain drugstores, they maintain a well-stocked inventory of both prescription and over-the-counter medications. The pharmacist’s ability to communicate in English has made this a go-to spot for foreign residents and tourists needing medication. They’re especially good at helping customers find equivalent medications to those available in their home countries, though selection may be more limited than larger pharmacies.
