Pharmacy in Ayia Napa tonight
Αγία Νάπα · εφημερεύον φαρμακείο
Late-night cold medicine, painkillers or a prescription refill near the Ayia Napa strip? Here's tonight's on-call pharmacy.
Ayia Napa is part of the Ammochostos (Famagusta) district. Cyprus runs its night pharmacy rotation at the district level, so the same on-call schedule covers Ayia Napa, Nissi Beach, Protaras, Paralimni and Deryneia. On any given night one pharmacy in the district opens through the evening (and at least one stays reachable overnight). It might be a few hundred meters from your hotel, or it might be a short taxi ride into Paralimni — the page below tells you exactly which, with the address and phone.
Tip for visitors: Ayia Napa has roughly 6-8 pharmacies near the main square and harbour. During the day most are open from 08:00 to 13:30, then again from 15:30 to 18:00. After hours, only the rotating duty pharmacy stays accessible — sometimes through a window, sometimes with the front door open. Always phone first.

FAQ — Pharmacies in Ayia Napa
Is the nearest night pharmacy walkable from the Ayia Napa main strip?
Usually no. Ayia Napa itself has a handful of daytime pharmacies near the main square, but the on-call (duty) rotation runs at the district level. Most nights the duty pharmacy is in Paralimni or Deryneia, which is roughly 5-10 minutes by taxi from the main strip. Tap the district page to see tonight's exact address and phone.
What time do Ayia Napa pharmacies close?
Standard hours are 08:00-13:30 and 15:30-18:00 on weekdays, with shorter hours on Saturday and most closed on Sunday. After-hours, one pharmacy in the Ammochostos district rotates as the on-call (εφημερεύον) pharmacy. That is the one you want at night.
Can I call the duty pharmacy before going?
Yes, and you should. Every pharmacy on the rotating duty schedule has a phone number — tap to call from the district page. Confirm they have your medicine in stock and that the door is open. Some on-call pharmacies operate on a knock-and-buzz system after midnight.
What if I need a doctor, not a pharmacy?
Call 112 (European emergency number) or 199 (Cyprus). Famagusta General Hospital is the closest public hospital; private clinics also operate in Paralimni. Don't wait for a pharmacy if it's a real medical emergency.
