用法筆記

British English only. American English uses 'drugstore' or 'pharmacy'. Often preceded by 'the' even when speaking generally ('go to the chemist's'). The apostrophe-s comes from the older phrase 'the chemist's shop'.

I bought aspirin at the chemist's.
the shop noun keeps the apostrophe-s and usually takes 'the'.
There is a chemists on the high street.
