Pharmacie du Nord

Pharmacie Nord in Pamplemousses is a community pharmacy serving residents across the northern district of Mauritius, including the towns of Pamplemousses, Triolet, Terre Rouge, and the surrounding villages. Located in one of the most historically significant areas of the island — Pamplemousses is home to the Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Botanical Garden and gives its name to one of Mauritius's nine districts — the pharmacy is a practical resource for both local residents and visitors to the northern region.

The pharmacy stocks a full range of prescription and over-the-counter medications, including generic and branded drugs across common therapeutic categories: antibiotics, antihypertensives, analgesics, antihistamines, vitamins and supplements, and dermatology products. Paediatric formulations and medications commonly required by elderly patients are reliably stocked. A qualified pharmacist is available throughout opening hours for advice on drug interactions, dosage, and suitability of over-the-counter medicines without the need for a doctor visit.

Personal care products, infant care items, sunscreen, insect repellent, oral care products, and basic first aid supplies are also available. Expats and visitors who require specific medications should bring a copy of their prescription from their home country; Mauritius pharmacists can advise on local equivalents. The pharmacy can prepare orders for medications not held in stock, with delivery typically available within one to two business days through local distribution networks.

The Pamplemousses district is well connected by road to Grand Baie, Port Louis, and the north coast resort areas. Pharmacie Nord is accessible by car and by public bus from surrounding towns. Opening hours follow standard Mauritius pharmacy trading patterns — Monday to Friday until early evening, and Saturday morning service. For medication advice outside opening hours, the nearest 24-hour pharmacy can be located through Apollo Bramwell Hospital's emergency line.
