How on-Duty Pharmacies Work in Turkey
- Pharmacists can advise on minor problems such as mild stomach upsets, insect bites and sunburn.
- A rota decides which pharmacy in each district stays open overnight, on Sundays and on public holidays. This is the on-duty pharmacy.
- Pharmacies (eczane) are marked with a red E sign.
- Some medicines are sold only with a prescription, and controlled substances need a physical prescription.
- The on-duty pharmacy may be in a neighbouring district, so a taxi can be useful at night.
- At night you may need to ring a bell or knock, as the on-duty pharmacy often serves through a small window.
A Short Checklist
- Your passport, since the prescription is linked to your passport number.
- Your e-prescription on your phone, or a printout.
- A note of allergies and other medicines you take.
- The address of your accommodation, in case the pharmacist needs to confirm your details.
- Cash or a card; some pharmacies prefer cash at night.
