We should have it somewhere. RP uses this term and my other EJs use 薬屋. I'll move it

I don't think an old word like "apothecary" is a fitting translation for a modern term like 薬剤師, which refers to licensed pharmacists.

The JMDICT didn't have a match for "apothecary", and this seemed to be the most common equivalent when I searched.
