Are common prescription medications available in Bali?
When we asked expats in Bali if common prescription medications are available in Bali, they wrote...
"Most drugs are easily available at pharmacies that are dotted everywhere. Most antibiotics can be bought over the counter, at a cost much less than in Europe," said another expat in Bali, Indonesia.
"Common prescription medications are generally available in Bali. You can find them in local pharmacies, also known as "apoteks" or "apotik," which are widely spread across the island. These pharmacies stock a range of medications, including antibiotics, pain relievers, and medications for chronic conditions. However, the availability of specific medications may vary, and some pharmacies may not carry certain brands or dosages. It is advisable to bring a sufficient supply of your prescription medications when traveling to Bali or consult a local doctor for an alternative prescription if needed," wrote a member who made the move to Bali, Indonesia.
