1 disposable: The adjective "disposable" refers to anything which can be thrown away, or which is not meant to be permanent. The term is used in this dialogue to describe "contact lenses", and indicates that the lenses Kevin has ordered are temporary, and can be thrown away after each use.
2 Contact lenses: "Contact lenses" are thin, hard or soft, lenses which are worn on the eyes to correct vision problems. Kevin has ordered "disposable contact lenses" from the pharmacy.
3 supply: A "supply (of medication)" refers to a stock or reserve of medication. The term "supply" has many meanings both as a noun and a verb, but in this context, it refers to the amount or quantity of something available.
4 Pills: A "pill" is (generally) a type of drug which can be swallowed in order to produce an effect on the body. In this dialogue, Kevin orders pills to prevent malaria, as well as anti-biotics which he hopes will help fight a viral infection. Sadly, anti-biotics are useless against viruses. Not sure why the pharmacist didn't tell him that. Seems highly unprofessional to us, but we're not doctors.
5 Condoms: A "condom" is a device made from latex, rubber or a similar material used to protect against sexually transmitted disease, and as a method of birth control. Kevin asks the pharmacist for a small box of condoms at the end of the dialogue.
