喉の薬でしたら、あちらの棚にございます。
のどのくすりでしたら、あちらのたなにございます。
If it's medicine for a sore throat, it's on that shelf over there.
Gesture & etiquette
Point to throat, then make a questioning gesture with open palms.
For serious conditions, consult a doctor or pharmacy, not just a convenience store. Be prepared to point to a symptom if language is an issue.
