He doesn’t consume alcohol, high-purine foods, such as meat, fish, dry beans (also lentils and peas), mushrooms, spinach, asparagus, cauliflower etc since these foods are not allowed for gout patients. So I was asking whether we can have specially prepared food over there. Also, are there doctors available 24*7? He needs to buy medicines where can I find a pharmacy directory in Aruba. I know a very nice site on United States pharmacy directory where you get the address and the phone number of the local pharmacies in US grouped by cities that has been very useful to me whenever I have been to US. I would like to have similar info on the pharmacies and hospitals in Aruba before coming over there. Thanks!!
