For serious, potentially life-threatening issues that require immediate, specialized treatment, like breathing difficulties, severe bleeding, or head injuries. Non-urgent visits use up resources needed for emergency patients.

Pharmacies in Seville, Spain

In Seville, pharmacies are commonly referred to as “farmacias.” They are easily identifiable by a green cross, which is typically illuminated and sometimes flashes, making them stand out, especially at night. This symbol is universally recognized in Spain as an indicator of a pharmacy, and it helps residents and visitors locate a pharmacy quickly.

Antibiotic Policy in Spain

In Spain, pharmacists are not allowed to sell antibiotics over the counter. Antibiotics can only be dispensed with a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare professional. This policy is part of Spain’s effort to combat antibiotic resistance and ensure that antibiotics are used appropriately and only when necessary.
