About this experience

Pharmacies in Stromboli are the island's two licensed dispensaries, located in the main village of San Vincenzo and the hamlet of Ginostra. They supply prescription medicines, first aid supplies, and basic health products to residents and visitors. Given the island's remote nature, these pharmacies are essential for managing minor ailments during a stay.

What to expect

The San Vincenzo pharmacy is open Monday to Saturday, 9:00-13:00 and 16:00-20:00, with a rotating Sunday morning schedule.
The Ginostra pharmacy operates on a reduced schedule, typically open a few hours daily, and is reachable only by foot or boat.
Both pharmacies stock common over-the-counter items like paracetamol, antihistamines, motion sickness tablets, and sunburn relief gels.
Prescriptions from EU countries are generally honoured, but non-EU visitors should bring a doctor's note or their original medication packaging.
The San Vincenzo pharmacy offers a small selection of baby care products and travel-sized toiletries, useful for last-minute needs.
Pharmacists speak basic English and can advise on minor ailments, but for serious emergencies, you must go to the medical centre or call the guardia medica.
