How to get there
Lučac is close to the center of Split, east of the old town and near the ferry-port side of the city. From the Riva, Diocletian’s Palace, Bačvice, or the main bus and ferry area, it may be walkable depending on where you are staying and how you feel.
At night, use a taxi or app ride if you are unwell, alone, carrying luggage, or not sure about the route.

What to bring
Bring:
- passport or ID
- health insurance card if you have one
- prescription, package, or photo of the medicine
- the generic medicine name if you know it
- payment card or cash
If you need a prescription medicine, the pharmacist may not be able to sell it without a valid prescription. If you forgot your medicine, bring the original packaging or a clear photo so the pharmacist can identify the active ingredient.
If you do not speak Croatian
Most pharmacists in Split understand enough English for common tourist needs. Keep your request simple:
- “I need something for fever.”
- “I need something for stomach pain.”
- “I forgot my prescription medicine.”
- “Is this medicine available?”
- “Do I need to see a doctor?”
If you know the active ingredient, say that instead of only the brand name. Brand names can differ between countries.
When to call medical help
Call emergency help if the situation feels serious. In Croatia:
Do not wait for a pharmacy if someone has breathing problems, chest pain, severe allergic reaction, heavy bleeding, loss of consciousness, or other urgent symptoms.
Pharmacies are useful for minor problems, advice, and standard medicines. They are not a replacement for emergency care.
Common tourist situations
People usually look for a late-night pharmacy in Split for:

For heat exhaustion, dehydration, strong allergic reactions, or worsening symptoms, get medical help instead of only buying medicine.
