Pharmacy category need in Bangladesh

[Tanvirbd]

In Bangladesh, we public recognize a medicine selling shop as pharmacy. In our country Bangladesh " Pharmacy" category previously available. Now not available pharmacy category. How can I apply for this category for Bangladesh, on behalf of Bangladeshi local guide community?

Thanks in Advance

hello,

Here in Malta we use the term Pharmacy for the store's name, and Chemist for the Pharmacy's employee. Pharmacy is currently missing here in Google Maps too. Using the google.com maps doesn't give the category, either.

Its a little odd, I use English in Thailand and Pharmacy (or drug store) does not appear in the drop down selection, (only Chemist), but there are many locations set up as pharmacy.

I live in Turkey and sometimes I am doing edits while Google Maps is working in English. Category 'Pharmacy' doesn't come up while I am editing in English. Since it's called 'Eczane' in Turkish, the same word doesn't come up in English version of Google Maps.

So I guess this is not a language issue. This is a bug and it should be fixed.

Category names will depend on the country you are in and the language you have set on your Google Maps.

For example, "Pharmacy" may appear as "Drug Store" or appear as "Chemist".

Please consider this Pharmacy category in the maps feature.. 

Because we still not get this category Pharmacy  or Drug store it is quit different to use other category in Bangladesh  

Happy Guiding !!!

Hi there,

It's strange but I'm not seeing any option to add pharmacy store location in my area. Both the "Pharmacy" and "Drug Store" terms are not included in the Category names. See the below screenshots.

Let me know what should I do now?

Thanks

Hi @Imtiazdanny this exact topic was discussed before. You can use category Drug Store instead. See this post for your further info https://www.localguidesconnect.com/t5/Mapping-Your-World/I-can-t-find-pharmacy-category/m-p/82809

Hi @KimLong, the term "Drug store" is also not appearing in the category. Plz check the second screenshot. FYI, I've read the post but I'm not sure whether describing a pharmacy as "Chemist" is appropriate or not. This because in my country whenever the term "Chemist" is used, people often understand it as someone who has graduated in Chemistry or works in a chemical industry.

I hope you would understand.

Thanks,

Imtiaz
