Hospital

Public hospitals usually offer primary care as well as emergency services. Public hospital facilities are very well equipped and it is not uncommon for private health institutions to send seriously ill patients to state facilities because of their ability to treat patients.

Pharmacy

Many medications are available over the counter in Spain. However, a prescription allows you to redeem the costs. Under the state healthcare plan medications are offered at a 60 percent discount (free for pensioners). Doctors in the emergency departments of state health service hospitals will prescribe medicine, but do not issue official prescriptions. You should take the report to a primary care doctor who will write a prescription for you.

Pharmacies (farmacia) are generally open between 9:30 - 14:00 and 17:00 - 21:30 Mondays to Fridays; and from 9:30 to around 14:00 on Saturdays. There are 24-hour pharmacies and their information will be provided on all pharmacy shop windows.
