Pharmacies here (NL) have two points of sale: one for prescribed medicine, one for over the counter. But the over the counter also sells other stuff such as a thermometer for babies, pads, tampons, and candy such as liquorice and peppermint. IMHO a pharmacy should not sell candy, or any pseudoscientific BS for that matter. Other than that you're better off going to such a store -if they got what you need and are open, that is.
