Redcare Pharmacie Scraper

Scrape product data from Redcare Pharmacie (redcare-pharmacie.fr, formerly shop-pharmacie.fr), the French online pharmacy of the Redcare Pharmacy group. Get product names, brands, prices, list prices, product codes, ratings, review counts, stock status, images and categories. No login, no cookies.

What this actor does

Redcare Pharmacie is one of France's largest online pharmacies, with a catalogue of medicines, parapharmacy, health, beauty and personal-care products. This actor searches that catalogue by keyword and returns a clean, structured record for every matching product, straight from the store's own search backend.

You give it a French search term (for example doliprane, vitamine d, or creme solaire) and a result limit. It returns the same products a shopper sees on the site, with pricing, discounts, product codes, ratings and availability, ready to export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or to feed into your own pipeline.

Why use this actor?

• Price monitoring — track medicine and parapharmacy prices across the French market.
• Competitor benchmarking — compare Redcare Pharmacie against other pharmacies (see Related Scrapers below).
• Product matching — match by the store's product code, exposed on every result in the sku field.
• Market research — pull ratings, review counts and discounts to see what sells and how it is positioned.
• Catalogue building — assemble a health-and-beauty product feed with images and categories.

No account is required. The actor reads the store's public product search directly, so results are fast and stable run after run.

How to scrape Redcare Pharmacie data

1. Add this actor to your Apify account.
2. Set searchQuery to a French keyword, for example doliprane, vitamine d, magnesium or creme solaire. Leave it empty and the actor defaults to doliprane so a blank run still returns data.
3. Set maxResults to cap the run (default 100, prefilled 20 for a quick test).
4. Optionally set a proxy. The search API is public and works without one, but a residential FR proxy is available as a safety valve.
5. Run the actor. Results stream to the dataset and can be exported as JSON, CSV, Excel or pulled via the API.

The actor queries the store's Algolia-powered product search, pages through the results up to your limit, deduplicates by product id, and writes one row per product.

About the product code

Every product carries a store product code (an F-prefixed pack identifier, for example F10000377). This actor returns it in the sku field, so you can join Redcare Pharmacie data against your own catalogue or track a specific pack over time. EAN/GTIN barcodes are not exposed by the store's search backend, which is normal for pharmacy listings.

Prices and discounts

• price is the current selling price in EUR.
• originalPrice is the list/strike-through price, present only when it is higher than the selling price (so you can compute the discount).
• pricePerUnit is the base price per unit (for example per tablet or per 100 ml), useful for comparing pack sizes.
• Some prescription medicines are listed without a public price; those are skipped.

Notes and limitations

• Search-based. The actor scrapes by keyword. Broad terms return more products; specific terms return fewer, more relevant ones.
• Result window. A single keyword returns up to roughly 1,000 products (the search backend's pagination window). For a fuller pull, run several targeted queries.
• French storefront. This actor targets redcare-pharmacie.fr (redcare-pharmacy.fr redirects there), with French pricing and availability. For the German or Austrian market, use the Shop Apotheke scrapers linked below.
• No prescription checkout. This reads public product data only; it does not place orders or handle prescriptions.

FAQ

Do I need an account or cookies? No. The actor reads the store's public product search directly.

Which country does this cover? The French storefront (redcare-pharmacie.fr), prices in EUR with French availability.

How do I match products across runs? Use the sku field, which holds the store's stable product code.

Can I scrape the whole catalogue? Run a set of category or keyword queries. Each query returns up to about 1,000 products, so split broad ranges into narrower terms for full coverage.
