Where to find specific medications in Sharm el-Sheikh?

TL;DR
Try Russkaya Apteka (Russian Pharmacy) or ElEzaby chain — both have websites to check stock. Be aware that online availability may not match what's actually in store.
What the community said
Russkaya Apteka and ElEzaby are the main options for finding medications in Sharm. Both have websites where you can check availability. However, items listed as 'in stock' on the Russkaya Apteka website may not actually be available in-store — this is a known recurring issue.

If you can't find the medication you need, contact the Russkaya Apteka manager directly via messenger — they can advise on availability and alternatives. You can also ask a pharmacist in any local pharmacy for guidance.

Small pharmacy kiosks in Sharm's tourist areas are not reliable for finding specific medications. Stick to established pharmacy chains like ElEzaby rather than small retail outlets.
