Pharmacies on duty in Famagusta (Paralimni, Protaras) today and tomorrow: addresses with landmarks, phone numbers, closing times and how to reach the pharmacist at night. From the official rota.
Open until 22:00
Pharmacies in Ayia Napa are not on the duty rota — the 2024 amendment took resort areas out of it. The nearest ones on duty are in Sotira and Paralimni, 8–10 km away.
Pharmacies take turns on duty under a rota that the Pharmacy Council approves twice a year. On its day, a pharmacy on duty stays open over the lunch break and in the evening until 22:00 (23:00 from May to September), and from 08:00 on Sundays and public holidays. After that, until 08:00 the next morning, the pharmacist must be reachable for urgent prescriptions. This is set by decree ΚΔΠ 210/2022.
Not every pharmacy is on the rota. Resort areas whose population doubles in summer (Ayia Napa, Peyia) were taken out of it by amendment ΚΔΠ 335/2024, and village pharmacies outside the larger municipalities keep their own hours. If there is none on duty near you, tap “Find the nearest”.
In an emergency, call 112.
Before driving out at night, call first: the rota is sometimes changed after it is published. Rota: Pharmacy Council, data.gov.cy (CC BY 4.0). Checked 10.10.2026. Locations: © OpenStreetMap contributors.
