Zambo drugstore sells even free tab on promo pack

ZAMBOANGA CITY – The Oro Wonder Drug has been accused anew of overpricing after its branch in Veterans Avenue here sold multivitamins higher than its cover price.



One customer alleged that Oro Wonder Drug sold her recently two promo packs of Enervon 9+1 (tablets) and charged her all 20 tablets at P6.50 each despite 2 tablets were supposed to be free. 

She also showed an official receipt as proof of her purchase of two promo packs of Enervon 9+1 for P130.

But Oro Wonder Drug’s competitor just across its branch, Joan’s Pharmacy sells the same Enervon promo pack 9+1 for only P55.50 lower than the P65 per pack Oro Wonder Drug is selling.

There was no immediate statement from Unilab, the manufacturer of Enervon; and Oro Wonder Drug about the allegations. 

In March, Oro Wonder Drug issued a public apology after it allegedly sold an overpriced N95 face mask to a customer in the middle of the coronavirus pandemic. This came out after a photo had surfaced online and allegedly showed its branch sold the mask for P395 each and about P290 higher than its suggested retail price.

During that time, the Department of Trade and Industry said N95 face mask can only be sold at P45-P105 which was recommended by the Department of Health.

Oro Wonder Drug blamed “human error” for the overpriced mask, saying the pricing should have been sold per pack, not per piece and corrected its pricing to their stores, and even offered a refund to its customers who had purchased the overpriced masks. (Zamboanga Post)
