Confirm stock. Before ordering, confirm that the exact medicine is available; one asthma-inhaler order ended with a different medicine delivered.
Allow time. If ordering across a short distance, leave extra time rather than assuming delivery will be immediate; one customer waited an hour.
Check WhatsApp. WhatsApp ordering can be convenient, but check for a reply before relying on it for urgent late-night medicine.
Ask sourcing. If a product is unavailable, ask whether the pharmacy can arrange it; customers say out-of-stock requests may be sourced.
Plan parking. If driving, plan for paid parking nearby: one reviewer described parking as a challenge in Dubai and mentioned spaces in front of the pharmacy.

The Bottom Line
LIFE Pharmacy - 98 in Al Raffa is a practical option for prescription medicines, over-the-counter needs, supplements and medical supplies. Customers particularly mention WhatsApp ordering, home delivery and help with insurance approvals. Several reviews say staff explain how to take medicines clearly, while one customer valued the branch’s 24-hour access for late-night medication needs.
The stock-related feedback is useful rather than uniformly glowing. Customers say medicines and medical supplies are often available, and the pharmacy may arrange an out-of-stock product. One review describes a protein supplement being sourced for muscle building, while another says a nebulizer mask was not offered as an alternative.
If you need a specific item, confirm the exact brand or medicine before relying on delivery. Service is generally described as kind, knowledgeable and efficient, with the shop called clean and well organised. Insurance handling and WhatsApp updates have made prescription collection easier for some customers.
Still, response times are not consistent: one late-night WhatsApp order went unanswered, another delivery took an hour across the street, and a separate complaint involved the wrong asthma medicine being delivered. Drivers should also factor in parking difficulty around the branch.
