Riverton Pharmacy
About
When in South Island, Riverton Pharmacy is the pharmacy that visitors and locals turn to for prescriptions and everyday medicines. A rating of 4.9 out of 5, based on 16 reviews, places it among the better-judged counters in the region.
Its position at 168 Palmerston Street, Riverton/Aparima 9822 puts it in a small coastal town on the southern route, within reach of travellers heading between Dunedin, Queenstown and Te Anau. The counter dispenses prescriptions and stocks over-the-counter remedies for the complaints that interrupt a trip, from colds to upset stomachs.
The pharmacy opens from 07:30 onwards, an early start that suits anyone setting off before the day's driving. Its listing sits on the Healthpoint website at https://www.healthpoint.co.nz/pharmacy/pharmacy/riverton-pharmacy/, where the pharmacy's details are published.
Hire cars are the usual way to travel the larger islands, and traffic drives on the left, so a pharmacy stop is simple to fold into a day's route. Summer runs from December to February, opposite the northern hemisphere, and the southern coast is at its busiest then. Flat whites, meat pies and fish and chips are the everyday takeaway staples to look for nearby.
