The KEMH pharmacy is the only one in the Islands and is staffed by a full-time pharmacist and two pharmacy technicians. The pharmacy sells a limited range of over-the-counter medicines, but most items are issued via prescription. Prescriptions are free to all Falkland Islands and UK residents.

Patients in remote rural locations receive their medication through the post, including the replenishment of items kept in medicine chests.

The pharmacy also manages the smoking cessation clinic, which provides free nicotine replacement or prescription items, along with support and advice. For more information please call +500 28066 or email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
