TL;DR
In Sharm El Sheikh you can order medicine from a pharmacy and have a courier bring it straight to your hotel: in June 2026 a traveler ordered everything she needed from the Alenka pharmacy and paid in Egyptian pounds. According to reports from June and July 2026, Desal cost $1.5 at an on-site hotel pharmacy, another medicine cost $2, and ordering through the Vasha Apteka pharmacy came out cheaper than buying at the hotel shop.
Hotel pharmacy. In early July 2026 a participant suggested buying Desal at the pharmacy on the hotel grounds: according to them it cost $1.5, and it worked for them during their trip. Prices in hotel pharmacies can differ between hotels and change over time.
Ordering versus the hotel shop. In late June 2026 another traveler wrote that she usually ordered medicine from the Vasha Apteka pharmacy because it is cheaper there. When she needed one more pack, she bought it at the shop on the hotel grounds for $2. In her experience, ordering is cheaper, while the hotel shop is handy when you need the medicine right away.
Delivery to the hotel. In June 2026 a traveler said she was happy with the Alenka pharmacy: she ordered everything she needed, a courier brought the order straight to her hotel, and payment was accepted in Egyptian pounds. This is one person's experience; check whether the specific medicine is available and how delivery works when you order.
