It may be difficult to find an open pharmacy this Thursday, May 30, due to a strike. If you need to find a pharmacy open that day, it's always possible. Here are some tips. 

Many pharmacies are likely to keep the curtain down this Thursday, May 30, due to a call for a strike which should be widely followed by pharmacists, worried about the economic viability of their sector. 

The ARS website

But as with Sundays and public holidays, even in the event of a strike, certain establishments are requisitioned to provide service.

As indicated by ARS, these establishments, listed on the website of the regional health agency, will necessarily be open, but they may not be the only ones: "other pharmacies may nevertheless be open at their usual hours if they choose not to join the strike"< /em>, specifies the site.

The 32 37, not necessarily reliable

The regional president of the Order of Pharmacists, Bruno Galan, advises against calling 32 37, the number which provides information on on-call pharmacies , which may "not provide up-to-date information".

On the other hand, he assures that there will be no problem with access to medicines, with a number of on-call pharmacies spread across the territory, there will be twenty in Hérault as an example.

Posters on pharmacies

Another option to find out where to find an open pharmacy is to go to your usual pharmacy, or the one closest to your home. If it is closed, a display will inform you of the nearest pharmacy open this May 30.
