Pharmacy in Grand Cayman

From our travel guide

Need a prescription filled after hours? Health Care Pharmacy's West Bay Road location and the pharmacy inside Cayman Islands Hospital in George Town are the two most reliable options once standard retail hours end. Health Care Pharmacy is the island's largest network, with locations across George Town, West Bay, Savannah, and the Seven Mile Beach corridor, handling prescription dispensing, delivery, and a wide range of over-the-counter products.

Doctors Hospital Pharmacy sits inside the CTMH Doctors Hospital complex on West Bay Road, useful if you're already seeing a doctor there, and Kirk Pharmacy operates alongside Kirk Market near George Town, filling prescriptions while also stocking vitamins, supplements, and health foods. Several pharmacies are attached to clinics this way, so a doctor's visit and a prescription pickup often happen in one trip.

If you take a regular medication, pack enough for your stay and bring a copy of the prescription; local pharmacies stock most common drugs if you run short, and several also carry basic equipment like blood pressure monitors, first-aid supplies, and mobility aids. Prices for both prescription and over-the-counter medication run higher than in the US or UK because of import costs. Residents should check whether their insurance plan covers pharmacy costs and which locations are in-network; visitors should confirm their travel insurance does the same. Most pharmacies take US dollars and major credit cards.
