Pharmacies (Farmacias)

<top of page>

 

Benavides, ABC, and Farmacia Guadalajara are large pharmacies, but there are pharmacies in super-markets, and small ones on many corners. Since most medicines are price controlled, the price does not vary much, but be sure to check the expiration dates.  

 

Most medicines are available in Mexico without a prescription, except for narcotics and a few others
