PHARMACIES (Chemist's shops)

Finding Western medications in St. Petersburg is no longer a problem. There is an extensive network of reasonably well-stocked pharmacies (chemists). Many stores and metro stations now have pharmacy kiosks, so do many hotels. If you stay at a hotel, ask at the reception where the nearest pharmacy is or check our list below.

The Russian word for 'pharmacy' is apteka (which is what you should ask for when you need to find a pharmacy). Most pharmacies are open from 8 am to 8 pm, but times might vary. Most, if not all, pharmacies have only over-the-counter service. Some pharmacies still have separate counters for prescription medicines. Always check availability with a pharmacist (How to do it?), since some medicines might not be on display, and pay at the same counter.

Some of the better-stocked and convenient pharmacies include:

  • Petrofarm pharmacy.
