Medical Cards - All
non-Serbian citizens officially working in Serbia are entitled to Serbian
medical cards for themselves and all their dependents. It is a green/orange card folded into three,
with Cyrillic writing. The card is
issued via your employer. The card needs
to have the current stickers inside the card to make it valid – check with your
employer how regularly you need to get a sticker (eg. 6/12months) and ensure
your employer provides the sticker for you.
Take your medical card with you when you attend a hospital. The Serbian medical card entitles you to free
medical care at state institutions to the same level as a Serbian citizen would
receive. Most expats use private clinics for routine visits.
Pharmacies - Pharmacists
are generally helpful and often speak excellent English. They can sell many medicines over the counter
without prescription, and will happily suggest a suitable product for minor
ailments.
Most
pharmacies that you see are private pharmacies.
State pharmacies are harder to find, but are sometimes the only places
to stock certain prescribed medicines.
Medication Availability Number
Instead
of driving from one pharmacy to another to hunt down some special medication,
you can call up two special information numbers:
State pharmacies 011/2435 008
Private pharmacies 011/2671 996
You tell them the name of the medication you need and in which part of town you live, they will then look up in which pharmacy the product is generally listed and give you the number of the specific pharmacy. You can then call this pharmacy and find out if they presently have the medication on stock.

Continue around on that cobblestone street until you see a traffic light (at the street where Fashoff and Restaurant Knez are). If you reach the traffic light, you've gone about 2 buildings too far. Theirs is on the left (#2a). Parking is always available there in a 3-hour zone.
