Where to find a reliable pharmacy with fair prices in Sharm el-Sheikh?

Russian Pharmacy accepts orders via WhatsApp — you can order online and receive delivery within about an hour. Prices are lower than at the Senzo Mall pharmacy, though that one is also reasonably priced.

The pharmacy in Senzo Mall sells at the prices printed on the packaging. The pharmacy at Albatros Palace hotel is also honest on pricing. Note: if you pay in dollars or euros, they may apply their own exchange rate — paying in Egyptian pounds is safer.

El Ezaby pharmacy chain is the most reliable option: prices match exactly what's printed on the packaging. They accept foreign cards via Bank Misr terminals. Personally verified.

A pharmacy near Aurora Oriental Resort quoted $37 for a purchase, but after negotiating and asking to charge by the printed price tags, the total came to 1,235 EGP — nearly 1.5x cheaper. Always ask for the price in Egyptian pounds.

You can verify the official price of any Egyptian medication online — the price per pack or blister is always listed on the packaging or in online drug databases. Use this to avoid overpaying.

Russian Pharmacy is located in Naama Bay — the closest to the main tourist area. About a 15-minute walk from Mango Market. Easy to find via Google Maps by searching 'pharmacy'.

Old Market and Soho Square areas also have pharmacies, but you'll need a taxi to get there. Near Mango Market there are walkable pharmacies with reasonable prices.

In any Sharm el-Sheikh pharmacy, always compare the price at the register with what's printed on the box. If they quote you in dollars, that's a red flag — ask them to charge the Egyptian pound price shown on the label instead.
