Hello everyone! Welcome to our easy Spanish podcast.
Hi, Camila! Hello to all our dear friends!
Today we have a very important, and very practical topic for everyone.
Yes! We talk about how to buy basic medicine, in a pharmacy.
When you travel for the first time, to a Spanish-speaking country, everything is new.
You walk along pretty streets, try delicious food, and enjoy a lot.
But sometimes, after the sun, you feel mild discomfort.
Exactly. One day you walk all afternoon, and your head hurts.
Hahaha! That happened to me recently, on a relaxing trip.
It is a very common situation, for anyone on a trip.
That's why it is very important to know how to communicate well, in the pharmacy.
In Latin American pharmacies, they always assist you with kindness.
You only need a few simple phrases, to explain your need clearly.
With a smile and good manners, communication is very simple.
Totally! Pharmacists always help you, with great patience.
Today we prepared six direct, useful, and very easy to remember phrases.
They are phrases to greet, ask basic questions, and pay for your purchase.
Let's listen to our six phrases for today, in order.
Our first phrase is the main one: Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza (I'm looking for something for a headache).
The second phrase is to know if you need a prescription: ¿Necesito receta médica? (Do I need a medical prescription?).
The third phrase helps ask for a small amount: ¿Tiene una caja pequeña? (Do you have a small box?).
The fourth phrase asks about usage instructions: ¿Cómo se toma esto? (How do you take this?).
The fifth phrase is to know the price: ¿Cuánto es en total? (How much is it in total?).
And the sixth phrase is for payment time: ¿Puedo pagar con tarjeta? (Can I pay by card?).
Excellent! They are six very useful and valuable phrases.
With these phrases, you will enter the pharmacy, with complete confidence.
And now, Diego is going to tell us a real story, in a pharmacy.
Yes! Yesterday I lived this experience in person, and want to share it.
Tell us everything, Diego! Where did your walk begin yesterday?
Yesterday afternoon, I walked along a quiet street in Guanajuato.
What a pretty city! But in the afternoon the sun gets quite hot.
Yes, I walked for three whole hours, without my favorite hat.
Oh, Diego! You always forget your hat, when you go out for a walk.
Hahaha! It's true, Camila. And that's why my head felt very heavy.
And what did you do, when you felt that discomfort on the street?
Suddenly, I saw the green sign of a small pharmacy.
What good luck! Local pharmacies have very visible signs.
I pushed the glass door, and entered the clean, cool store.
Inside you feel great relief, and great calm after the heat.
I saw very pretty white shelves, with many organized products.
And behind the counter, you saw the pharmacist ready to assist.
I approached the counter and said: Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza.
A very direct, clear, and very polite phrase to begin.
The pharmacist greeted me, with a big smile and kindness.
What a relief! It brings great calm when they greet you with a smile.
The pharmacist smiled and I asked calmly: ¿Necesito receta médica?
A very smart question, before choosing any product!
The pharmacist told me that for simple pain, I don't need a prescription.
Sure. For common pain, they sell over-the-counter tablets.
The man showed a large box and I asked: ¿Tiene una caja pequeña?
Very well thought! A large box takes up too much space, in a backpack.
The pharmacist brought a small blue box and I asked: ¿Cómo se toma esto?
We should always ask how to take the medicine, carefully.
The pharmacist calmly explained to me: you take it with water according to the packaging.
It is an explanation very easy to remember, and very easy to follow.
I listened to the instructions and asked the price: ¿Cuánto es en total?
It is good to know the exact cost, before taking out your wallet.
The pharmacist told me: it is fifty pesos in total.
A very fair, economical, and good price!
I took out my wallet and asked: ¿Puedo pagar con tarjeta?
Nowadays almost all pharmacies, accept card payments.
I paid with my card on the machine, and walked out very happy.
What a good experience, Diego! You bought your medicine without any difficulty.
Yes, then I bought a bottle of water, and rested in the park.
You drank fresh water, and your head rested in the shade.
Exactly! And after a few minutes, I felt much better.
What great relief! Now we are going to study each phrase, with much detail and calm.
Let's study the first phrase calmly: Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza.
Here we use the verb buscar in present. You say 'busco algo para'.
In English it means: 'I am looking for something for a headache'.
It is a very natural phrase, to explain your discomfort immediately.
If you have another discomfort, you only change the last words.
For example, you can say stomach ache, or throat pain.
But the structure 'busco algo para', always stays the same.
Exactly! It is a very useful formula, in any health store.
We now move to our second phrase: ¿Necesito receta médica?
The word receta refers to the official paper, signed by the doctor.
In English it means: 'Do I need a prescription?'.
In many countries, some medicines require a medical prescription.
But common tablets for the head, are over the counter.
With this question you confirm, if you can buy the product directly.
The pharmacist answers you, with much kindness and clarity.
That way you avoid any confusion, before paying.
Our third phrase is very useful: ¿Tiene una caja pequeña?
In English it means: 'Do you have a small box?'.
Sometimes the seller shows you, a pack with forty tablets.
But on a short trip, you only need a few tablets.
A small box costs less, and does not take up space in your luggage.
Hahaha! Sure, nobody wants to carry heavy boxes, in their pocket.
Also, small boxes are easier to store, in your purse.
Totally! It is the most practical option for any traveler.
We reach our fourth phrase for today: ¿Cómo se toma esto?
This question is very important, to know the instructions for use.
In English it means: 'How do you take this?'.
The pharmacist explains to you, if it is taken with a glass of water.
He also indicates, if it is better to take it after eating.
Always listen carefully, and read the packaging with care.
Our fifth phrase helps us at the final moment: ¿Cuánto es en total?
In English it means: 'How much is it in total?'.
It is a short, classic, and very common question in any shop.
The word total tells you the exact amount, that you are going to pay.
That way you can prepare your bills, or your card with peace of mind.
And we reach our sixth phrase: ¿Puedo pagar con tarjeta?
In English it means: 'Can I pay by card?'.
You can use your debit card, or your international credit card.
I always prefer to pay by card, because I don't carry coins.
Well, I prefer to carry some cash, in case the machine fails.
Good point! Now we are going to do a short conversation together to practice.
Let's practice a real situation, at the pharmacy counter!
Excellent idea! I am the customer, and you are the pharmacist.
Perfect! I am ready behind the counter. Let's start the dialogue!
Good morning, young man! Welcome. How can I help you today?
Good morning! Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza.
Very good. Here I have these tablets for common pain.
Thank you very much. ¿Necesito receta médica?
No, for these simple tablets, you do not need a medical prescription.
What good news! ¿Tiene una caja pequeña?
Yes, sure. Here I have a small box, with ten tablets.
Sounds very good to me. ¿Cómo se toma esto?
You take it with a glass of water, according to the instructions on the packaging.
Excellent, I'll take one small box. ¿Cuánto es en total?
It is sixty pesos in total, for the small box.
Perfect. ¿Puedo pagar con tarjeta?
Yes, of course. You can swipe your card on the machine.
Ready! The charge went through. Thank you very much for your kind assistance.
With pleasure! Have a good day and a good afternoon!
Thank you very much! See you later!
Hahaha! What a good practice we did together, Diego!
Yes, Camila. It was a very natural, clear, and useful conversation.
We used the six phrases, in less than two minutes with complete success.
Anyone can use this same model, on their travels.
And now comes the moment to practice, with a short question game.
Time for our mini Spanish quiz!
I am very ready and focused, to answer all the questions!
Here comes situation number one.

I say with much politeness and manners: Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza.
Very good, Diego! That phrase explains your need instantly.
We now move to situation number two.
You want to know if you need a document from the doctor, to buy the medicine. What do you ask?

Excellent! A key question, to know if you can buy the product.

Exactly! Practice out loud saying: Busco algo para el dolor de cabeza.
