If you are on holidays and realized that you forgot to pack your first aid kit don’t worry. Finding a pharmacy in Greece is not a problem, unless you stay in a remote village. Pharmacies are closed on Monday and Wednesday after 14:30. During the weekend, they are open only for three hours on Saturday. There are always pharmacies on duty though. In this post there are some common words related to products that we can find in a pharmacy and some phrases to describe one’s symptoms.<\/p>\n
