farmácia de serviço — duty pharmacy
A pharmacy that stays open at night, at weekends or on public holidays according to a rota approved for the year. The rota is posted on the door of every pharmacy and published by INFARMED. A pharmacy open round the clock may keep its door locked and serve customers through a hatch.
Where you come across it. You need medicine at night or on a Sunday.
A duty pharmacy may add a surcharge of up to €2.50 to the price — but not for a prescription dated that day or the day before.
