About
On Lombok, Apotek Kimia Farma is a pharmacy. It occupies premises on Jl. Pejanggik No.48D in the Cakranegara Bar. area of Mataram, Nusa Tenggara Bar.
Travellers should bring a prescription or clear details of their symptoms, as counter staff dispense according to Indonesian practice. A rating of 4.2 from 359 customer reviews places it among the busier pharmacies in the city. The branch sits in Cakranegara, west of central Mataram and within reach of Senggigi on the coast. Visitors heading to Kuta Lombok or the Mandalika area pass through Mataram, making the pharmacy a convenient stop before continuing south.
The pharmacy supplies prescription medicines and over-the-counter remedies, and its website at http://kimiafarmaapotek.co.id/ lists the wider network of branches. Apotek Kimia Farma serves both residents and travellers, stocking everyday health supplies alongside prescribed treatments. The Cakranegara branch is one of several Kimia Farma outlets across Indonesia, a state-linked chain with a long history in the country's pharmaceutical sector.
Lombok lies within Indonesia's tropical monsoon belt, so rain falls heaviest between November and March. Rough seas during the wet season can delay ferry crossings between the islands, which matters if the Gili Islands are on the itinerary. Bahasa Indonesia is the national language, and hundreds of regional languages such as Javanese and Sundanese are also spoken. Travellers planning to visit Tetebatu, Sendang Gile or Senaru in the north should carry basic medicines, as pharmacies are sparse outside the main towns.
