How to find a pharmacy in your area

The pharmacy list on this site shows where pharmacies are, based on OpenStreetMap. It does not show what they sell or charge. Here is how to use it well.

What the pharmacy list shows

Pharmacies on this site come from OpenStreetMap, a community-built map. Each listing can include a name, an address or area, a map position and, where a volunteer added them, a phone number or opening hours. We have not verified these details.

  • It shows where a pharmacy is, not what it has in stock.
  • It does not show medicine prices. No price on this site has been verified, so none are displayed.
  • It does not say whether a pharmacy is open right now, unless opening hours were mapped, and even then they may be out of date.

Find pharmacies by area

  1. Open the Pharmacies page.
  2. Choose your division or district in the Location filter and apply it.
  3. If you know the name, type part of it in the pharmacy name box.
  4. Open a listing to see its details and a Directions button that opens Google Maps.

Find pharmacies near you

On the pharmacy list you can press "Sort by distance from me". Your browser will ask for permission to share your location. If you allow it, the list is sorted by approximate distance. The position is used only for that list and is not stored. If you prefer not to share your location, search by area instead.

Before you set off

  • Call the pharmacy, if a number is listed, to check that it is open.
  • Ask the pharmacy directly whether it has the medicine you need. This site cannot tell you.
  • Bring your prescription, or the exact brand name, generic name and strength written down, so the pharmacist can understand what you are asking for.

If a pharmacy has closed, moved or is missing from the list, you can suggest a correction on OpenStreetMap or use the report link on the listing.

How to keep your family's medicine list

A pharmacy listing is not advice about medicines. For questions about a medicine, ask a registered doctor or pharmacist.

Frequently asked questions

Can I see medicine prices at a pharmacy here?
No. Medicine prices and stock are not available on this site. Please ask the pharmacy directly.
Is a listed pharmacy open 24 hours?
Only if opening hours were added on OpenStreetMap, and those may be out of date. Call the pharmacy to confirm.
Why is my local pharmacy missing?
It may not have been mapped on OpenStreetMap yet. Anyone can add it there; the change appears here after this site's next data update.
Is my location saved when I sort by distance?
No. It is only used to sort the list you are looking at.
