The Mamlock pharmacy
[Site description appears on separate sign]
The Mamlock pharmacy Here at 12 Borochov Street, there was a pharmacy established in 1944 by the pharmacist Yitzhak Isidor Mamlock, one of the first pharmacists in the country.
Mamlock came to Israel in 1907 from Germany. He was a pharmacist in the Petah Tikva colony, in the hospital in the Templar neighborhood of Jaffa, and later in the Sarona Templar colony.
Most of his treatments were mainly with herbs, alternative medicine and homeopathy, according to a method he studied in Germany. Many of his patients were Arabs from the area. Patients who could not pay with money for the medicines, paid for agricultural produce.
In the yard of the pharmacy, Mamluk grew medicinal plants, including bong, mint, nettles and more, and the eucalyptus leaves he grew in the yard made an infusion for inhalation. At the pharmacy, Mamluk brewed various ointments from tar and minerals brought from the Dead Sea to cure skin diseases.
The pharmacy operated in this place until 1970.
