How the duty pharmacy rota works in Nerja

1

A fixed turn every 9 days

The rota is set by the Málaga College of Pharmacists. The 9 pharmacies in Nerja follow a fixed cycle: each one is on duty every 9 days, for 24 hours from 9:30. This page takes the duty pharmacy from the official search every day.

2

At night, ring the bell

At night the duty pharmacy usually serves through a hatch or after you ring the bell: if it looks closed, look for the bell and wait a moment. Bring your prescription and, if you have one, your health card.

3

Nearby towns and doctors

Nearby towns (Frigiliana, Torrox) have their own rota. If you need medical care rather than medicine, go to the Nerja Health Centre.
