Frazdic Sta. Ana|

Every peso you invest in your health and wellness matters. With the cost of maintenance medications, first-aid essentials, daily supplements, and other health necessities can add up quickly, you’ll definitely want ways to save on these expenses. Fortunately, Southstar Drug has been a trusted name in the Philippines for decades that offers high-quality medicines and health products at competitive prices.

Founded in 1937 in Naga City, Southstar Drug has grown from a single store to one of the country’s largest pharmacy chains, with over 650 branches nationwide. Now part of Robinsons Retail Holdings, the brand continues to make healthcare products accessible to more Filipinos while introducing modern conveniences such as online shopping and delivery. With our long-standing commitment to affordability and service, Southstar Drug remains a go-to destination for those looking for cost-effective health solutions.

If you want to stretch your budget without compromising your healthcare needs, Southstar Drug has plenty of options to help. Here’s how you can maximize your savings when shopping with us:

Regular Promotional Offers

Seasonal promotions and special discounts are golden opportunities to cut costs on your health essentials. Southstar Drug frequently runs limited-time deals, including "Buy 1 Get 1" offers, percentage-based discounts, and bundled savings on select products. These promos let you stock up on necessary items at reduced prices and overall make it easier to manage your monthly healthcare budget.

At present, for instance, we’re currently running a Southstar Drug free shipping promo for the month of February, where we will deliver for free nationwide with no minimum spend. In addition, if you’re spending PHP 499 more on your order, you can also use our promo code SED-IBIG to get PHP 50 off. This promo will be valid until February 28, 2025, subject to certain terms and conditions. Do take note that this free shipping promo is not applicable to same-day delivery orders, so make sure to plan your purchases!

If you miss out on this month’s free shipping promotion, don’t worry! We have a daily free shipping offer for single-receipt orders of Php 1,499 and above.

Go Rewards Program

The Go Rewards Program gives you the chance to earn rewards every time you buy something you need from partner stores. As a member, you accumulate points with each purchase, which you can then redeem for discounts on future transactions. The more you shop, the more you save, making it a simple and effortless way to cut down on costs.

Unlike other loyalty programs that require a membership fee, Go Rewards is free to join, so it’s a no-risk option for regular shoppers. You can sign up in-store or online and immediately start earning points with every qualifying purchase. Over time, these points translate into substantial savings, especially if you frequently buy maintenance medications or household health essentials from Southstar.

Promo Packs

Promo packs are a more budget-friendly alternative to buying individual products one by one. Southstar Drug regularly bundles related items—such as vitamins, personal care products, and over-the-counter medicines—at a discounted price. This means you get more value for your money whenever you stock up on must-have products.

These promo packs are particularly useful for families or individuals who use specific items regularly. Instead of making repeat purchases at full price, you can buy in bulk at a lower cost. To find the latest promo packs, visit your nearest Southstar Drug branch or check the official online store, where we often feature exclusive bundle deals.

MedSubscribe Service

Staying on top of your medication schedule shouldn’t be a hassle—or a financial burden. That’s why Southstar Drug offers MedSubscribe, a subscription-based service that lets you schedule recurring deliveries for your medicines and wellness products. Beyond the convenience of automatic refills, MedSubscribe provides exclusive discounts of up to 50% off on selected medications. Signing up is easy, and with the added savings, it’s a service that pays off in more ways than one.

Senior Citizen and PWD Discounts

Healthcare costs can be particularly challenging for senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs), but government-mandated discounts on medicines and medical supplies can help ease this burden. Southstar Drug fully supports these benefits, and we’re deeply committed to making sure that eligible customers receive their entitled savings with minimal hassle. As long as you present a valid Senior Citizen or PWD ID along with the necessary documents, you can enjoy a 20% discount and VAT exemption on eligible prescription medicines and essential medical products. 

Newsletter Subscriptions

Most people only find out about a good deal when it’s almost over, but you don’t have to be one of them. Subscribe to Southstar Drug’s newsletter for early access to special promotions, exclusive discount codes, and updates on the latest deals. It’s one of the easiest ways to stay ahead of price drops and other offers without constantly checking the website or visiting a store.

Nationwide Delivery

Transportation costs and busy schedules often make pharmacy runs inconvenient. At Southstar, we aim to eliminate these obstacles with our nationwide delivery service. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a major city or a provincial area; we want you to enjoy the convenience of ordering anything you need online and having them delivered straight to your doorstep. This not only saves you money on travel expenses but also ensures you never have to delay purchasing important medications. 

Saving money on healthcare doesn’t have to mean sacrificing quality or convenience. Southstar Drug’s discounts, rewards programs, and exclusive services are designed to help you manage your health expenses more effectively while ensuring you always have access to the medicines and wellness products you need. Smart shopping today means greater financial flexibility for the future—so make every peso count with Southstar Drug.
