Are common prescription medications available in Sweden?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Sweden if common prescription medications are available in Sweden, they wrote...

"Prescription medications are widely available in Sweden. Most medications are dispensed through pharmacies, and some are available over the counter. The Swedish government regulates the availability of prescription medications, and the cost of medications is subsidized for those with a valid prescription. In addition, the government provides free medications to those who are unable to afford them," remarked another expat who made the move to Sweden.
