Amazon becomes an online pharmacy

- Webshop Amazon is considering taking out pharmacy items. The billionaire group wants to tackle expensive medicines.

To this end, it is looking for staff. That's what Bloomberg press office said on Wednesday.

The current topman for this component must expand the strategy for the pharmacy branch. Amazon would experiment with it internally.

Media reported that Amazon recently held a discussion about the excessive prices in the pharmaceutical market in Seattle. It will still be in consultation with market parties, and an entry in the market is not yet certain.

Amazon also works with the company behind different branding brands of Diageo such as Smirnoff for videos.

It makes Diageo videos that are shoppable, allowing viewers to order directly with a few mouse clicks. Amazon links its Prime service to that website, which allows members to quickly get their drinks.
