Pharmacies to translate instructions

NEW YORK Duane Reade, the largest pharmacy chain in New York City, has also agreed to the translation process, as has A&P, which operates Super Fresh, Food Emporium and other supermarkets on the East Coast.

In agreements with the state attorney general, the companies pledged to counsel and provide written translations in Spanish, Chinese, Italian, Russian and French. The companies didn't agree to provide information in Polish, although other pharmacies agreed to that in previous deals with the attorney general.

The agreements cover more than 700 stores statewide.
