Not really. I guess what you are insinuating (all their products are genuine if you have been doubting). They supply to almost 80% other pharmacies in town (what may be regarded as good).

Transchem is one of the cheapest if not the cheapest pharmacy in Kenya.

The have branches in Mumbi house, Development house and Opposite Jeshi at OTC.

Their wholesale is situated in the Uchumi super stalls building.

It has never been a sin for "able" people to look out for bargains.

"Upmarket" shopping malls are for people who THINK they have a lot money; those who actually do will always hunt for a discount... Why do you think Toi Market is where it is?

Haven't you ever seen an MD of a factory [who's an employee] driving a Ranger Rover 4.6HSE while the chairman [who owns the factory] drives a Land Rover Defender?

we wazuans buy genuine bargain drugs, not generic (mitumba) ones. If like in your case you went to the bata on river road and got a bargain on a pair of new shoes, that would have been acceptable - lakini kuenda kutafuta mitumba donholm is a no no.

It's not about the cost of a drug, it's about the QUALITY of the drug.

Shop around all those cheap chemists and see if the cost of a 5 day 675mg dose of Augmentin (GlaxoSmithKline) will have a variance in cost of more than 100 bob.

A 5 day dose of Augmentin RRP is Approx 1200 bob.

But you can get Augpen, Clavituf, Fleming, Finemox, Moxikind or xcilan (Generics from India) at about 500 bob. No Guarantee on getting well.
Set out to correct the world's wrongs and you will most certainly wind up adding to them.
