Pharmacies in Chile are a great resource for travelers, as most pharmacists are well-informed and many medicines are sold over-the-counter at low cost. While it is inappropriate to abuse this system, it is helpful to know that many drugs which require prescriptions in other countries do not require them in Chile. Note however, that pharmaceuticals do not have directions on the box, so be sure to ask the pharmacist for complete and detailed instructions.
Most pharmacies in Chile belong to three networks: Cruz Verde, Farmacias Ahumada, and SalcoBrand. The pharmacies listed below are located in Santiago andhave English-speaking pharmacists. They are open 24-hours.
