pharmacist (or chemist in some countries) is a licensed or otherwise regulated person who dispenses drugs, medication or medical supplies. Pharmacies generally offer a variety of prescription drugs and anesthetics, as well as many over-the-counter analgesics and drugs which do not require a prescription.

Topical anesthetics are often available without a prescription but you will probably need to ask the pharmacist for them.
