To get a prescription for medication in Dubai, you must visit a doctor and receive a diagnosis. If necessary, the doctor can then prescribe medication, which you can buy from a pharmacy through eRx (e-prescription). Controlled and semi-controlled drugs may require a special prescription from a specialist or consultant, such as a psychiatrist or pain management doctor.
The cost of a doctor’s visit can vary significantly depending on the type of doctor, their specialty, and whether or not you have health insurance. If you do not have insurance, a typical consultation with a doctor can cost anywhere from AED 250 to AED 625. Additional charges may apply for procedures and diagnostic services such as laboratory tests and radiology. It’s important to note that the cost of medication is also additional.
