Extra Tips for Travelers in Barcelona
A few practical things to know to make your stay in Barcelona stress-free when it comes to healthcare.
Always carry your passport
You will need it to purchase prescription medication at any farmacia in Spain.
Farmacias are everywhere
Look for the green cross. Most open 9am–10pm. Every neighbourhood has a farmacia de guardia (24h on-call) — your hotel can tell you the nearest one.
Watch your belongings
Barcelona has a high rate of pickpocketing, especially on La Rambla, El Born, and the metro. Stress and anxiety from theft are a real reason visitors contact us — keep cards and documents secure at all times.
Avoid self-medicating
Antibiotic resistance is a growing issue. In Spain, antibiotics require a prescription by law — always consult a doctor before purchasing them.
Food safety and GI issues
Barcelona’s seafood and tapas culture is world-class, but raw shellfish, undercooked fish, and late-night street food can cause stomach problems. GI infections are one of the top reasons tourists consult us — don’t wait if symptoms appear.
