Sun Store - non prescription pharmacy discount
https://www.sunstore.ch/fr

Sun Store is more than a pharmacy that serves up prescriptions. It's a place where you can get advice, vaccinations, heart rate check-ups, nutritional and dietary advice, diabetic monitoring, airborne allergy testing, and take advantage of its wide range of shopping ideas. 

Sun Store and the Swiss Heart Foundation actively support you in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and stroke. You can ask for a CardioTest® at any Sun Store (donators of the Swiss Heart Foundation receive a voucher; CHF 49.- for others). Sun Store also will mesure your cholesterol rate (total, HDL and LDL), blood sugar and blood pressure) and evaluate the risk in percentage of cardiovascular diseases in the next ten years. CardioTest®, Diabetotest®, and Allergotest® are brand names for these tests.

Sun Store serves about 100,000 customers a day throughout Switzerland and employs over 1,700 people. With over 85 addresses, Sun Store is the leading pharmacy chain in French-speaking Switzerland, and also has three addresses in Ticino.
