Are common prescription medications available in Nigeria?
When we asked expats in Nigeria if common prescription medications are available in Nigeria, they wrote...
"Yes, common prescription medications are available in Nigeria. Many pharmacies in the country carry a wide range of medications, including antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, and pain relievers. In addition, some hospitals and clinics may also provide access to certain medications. However, due to the cost of medications, many Nigerians may not be able to afford them," wrote a member who made the move to Nigeria.
