Find a pharmacy in Jurmala
Jurmala's pharmacy network is shaped by the resort's unusual rhythm: a permanent population of roughly 50,000 swells several-fold each summer as Latvian and Baltic visitors arrive for the beaches, sanatoria and rehabilitation clinics along the Gulf of Riga. PillsCard lists 18 verified pharmacies serving this stretched coastal city, clustered most densely in Majori and Dubulti around the pedestrianised Jomas iela and the main railway halts, with secondary nodes in Kauguri (which holds the largest residential population) and Bulduri. Many visitors are older guests attending balneotherapy programmes, so demand skews toward chronic-condition refills, dermatology preparations and travel essentials. Cross-border patients from Lithuania, Estonia and the Russian-speaking diaspora are common, and several counters routinely handle Russian, English and German alongside Latvian.
The market is dominated by national chains rather than independents. Mēness aptieka holds the clearest footprint, with multiple branches along the linear city — typically inside the Rimi and Maxima supermarkets in Kauguri, on Jomas iela in Majori, and near the Dubulti station — while Benu aptieka anchors a smaller but visible second tier, often co-located with shopping centres. Apotheka and BENU's franchise partners fill the remaining gaps in Sloka and Asari. There are no hospital-affiliated outpatient pharmacies inside Jurmala itself; serious cases are referred to Riga East Clinical University Hospital or Pauls Stradins Clinical University Hospital, both roughly 25–30 km away. For prescription dispensing, the chains generally stock a broader range of reimbursed generics than the independents.
