Antipaxos has no permanent pharmacy; the nearest pharmacy is on Paxos, reachable by a 15-minute boat ride from Antipaxos port. Visitors should stock up on prescription medications and basic first-aid supplies before arriving, as the island has only a seasonal mini-market with limited health items. For emergencies, the Paxos Health Centre in Gaios provides medical services and can arrange pharmacy deliveries.
What to expect
- A boat trip to Gaios on Paxos is required for any pharmacy purchase, with ferries running hourly from Antipaxos between 08:00 and 20:00 in summer.
- The Paxos pharmacy in Gaios stocks prescription medicines, sunburn treatments, antihistamines, and motion-sickness tablets, but does not offer home delivery to Antipaxos.
- Antipaxos has no doctor or nurse on-island; the nearest emergency medical response is from the Gaios Health Centre, which is 20 minutes away by speedboat.
- Visitors with chronic conditions should carry a written prescription and a 7-day supply of medication, as the Gaios pharmacy may not stock all brands.
- The seasonal mini-market on Antipaxos sells paracetamol, plasters, and antiseptic wipes, but no antibiotics or asthma inhalers.
- This setup suits self-sufficient travellers and day-trippers who plan ahead, not those requiring urgent pharmaceutical care.
