Spanish term

Droguerías

Spanish to English Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals Droguerías
Quisiera saber la traducción de "droguerías" en contraposición con "Farmacias". Tengo entendido que las droguerías proveen de medicamentos a las farmacias, y no estoy segura si la traducción correcta sería "drugstore" ya que "drugstore" se refiere a ese tipo de tiendas que proveen medicamentos así como también perfumería, insumos comestibles, etc.

(Wholesale) drug distributor

I'm not sure whether you wanted a translation of the word "droguería" or the term in English for what the companies that supply Chemists/pharmacies/drugstores with drugs are called.

Correct answers for "droguerías" have been given, so the other option is:
(Wholesale) drug distributor

disagree Samuel Sebastian Holden Bramah : Given that the context has been set as "Drogeria vs. Farmacia" I think it is clear that this is Lat-Am and Drug Distributor, ie, the company taking the medicine to the pharmacy in bulk

Thank you!
agree Patrice : pharmacy can also be used in North America, although not chemist

neutral David Brown : If you went into a "drogueria" in Spain you would not be in a chemist or pharmacy

neutral Sheila Hardie : I agree with David - we need to know which country is being referred to - if it's Spain, it's not a chemist's shop at all
4 hrs
neutral Samuel Sebastian Holden Bramah : No, since the context indicated is clear in asking for a differentiation between the two, such as in "DIRECCIÓN PROVINCIAL DE BIOQUÍMICA, FARMACIA Y DROGUERÍA CENTRAL"
