Hi

Can anyone tell me if I can get fostair (pink) inhaler in Spain and how much it costs?  would I need a prescription?.  I am not pensionable age and will have to have private healthcare when I come out.

Hi, they can be purchased without prescription at the pharmacy. Bad news is they are about €50 each.

Thank you, isn't that typical as I think I'll need one a month.  Oh well.  I think blue inhalers are cheaper. Thanks.

Yes you can also purchase a Ventolin inhaler over the counter and yes cheaper than the other one you mentioned.
