"Yes, common prescription medications are available in Medellin. Most pharmacies in the city carry a wide variety of medications, including those for common ailments such as colds, allergies, and headaches.

Additionally, many pharmacies in Medellin offer online ordering and delivery services, making it easy to get the medications you need without having to leave your home," explained one expat who made the move to Medellin, Colombia.
