Are common prescription medications available in Fiji?
When we asked expats in Fiji if common prescription medications are available in Fiji, they wrote...
"Yes, common prescription medications are available in Fiji. Most pharmacies in Fiji carry a wide range of medications, including those used to treat common illnesses such as colds, flu, and allergies. Many pharmacies also carry medications used to treat more serious conditions, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and heart disease. In addition, some pharmacies also offer specialized medications, such as those used to treat cancer and HIV/AIDS," explained one expat living in Fiji.
"Some medicines can be bought off the shelves but a few or those having chances of abuse can be bought only by a prescription and most of the time the medicines are available in the government and local pharmacies," said another in Suva, Fiji.
