## History

[edit]

In the beginning, Ruvim (Robert) Borisovich Idelson rented a room on the modern Chekhov Street for the location of his pharmacy.[3] Then, to develop his own business, he bought a two-story house with the same pharmacy on the first floor in 1884. Over time, Idelson's pharmacy became the best in the city of Taganrog. Until now, the image of the label from the pharmacy of Idelson has been preserved.[4]

The nationalization of the pharmacy took place on 20 June 1920. 9 people worked in the pharmacy room, I. B. Nankin was appointed to the post of the head pharmacist. The house became known as pharmacy No. 53 and continued its work. Since the late 1980s is a part of GPP "Pharmacy".[1]
