Input options

Search mode

Enter a search query and select a country. The scraper will search DrMax and extract products from the results:

{
    "searchQuery": "ibuprofen",
    "country": "cz",
    "maxResults": 50
}

URL mode

Provide specific product or category URLs. You can mix URLs from different countries:

{
    "categoryUrls": [
        { "url": "https://www.drmax.cz/vitaminy-a-mineraly" },
        { "url": "https://www.drmax.sk/aspirin" }
    ],
    "maxResults": 100
}

Default behavior

If no search query or URLs are provided, the scraper defaults to searching "ibuprofen" on drmax.cz. This ensures the actor always returns data.

How much does it cost to scrape DrMax?

Results	Estimated cost	Time
20 products	~$0.05	~2 min
100 products	~$0.15	~5 min

Tips for best results

• Use native language: Search in Czech on drmax.cz, Polish on drmax.pl, etc. For example, use "vitamín C" instead of "vitamin C" for better results on Czech and Slovak domains.
• Residential proxies recommended: DrMax uses Cloudflare protection. Residential proxies provide the most reliable access.
• Start with a small test: Use maxResults: 20 first to verify the scraper works with your proxy setup.
• Category URLs for bulk extraction: For large-scale scraping, use category URLs instead of search queries. Categories return more products.

FAQ

Is a DrMax account required? No. This scraper extracts publicly available product data without any login or authentication.

Can I scrape prescription medicines? The scraper extracts publicly listed product information. Prescription medicines may appear in search results but typically don't show online pricing.

How often should I run the scraper? For price monitoring, daily or weekly runs are recommended. DrMax updates prices and stock levels regularly.
