#54 You won’t go broke filling a prescription

The Ministry of Health chooses which drugs are included in the health basket and they are provided by the Kupot pharmacies or some are available through independent pharmacies. All pharmacies are linked to the Kupot computer system and today, many prescriptions are sent to the system digitally. A prescription can be obtained by walking into any pharmacy in the country and having your health card swiped.

You can search the basket registry for the following:

The Drug Registry contains all the information on registered drugs (or drugs previously registered) in Israel, and:

  • How they are taken (for example, pill, syrup)
  • Type of packaging
  • Symptoms and side effects
  • Patient information leaflets
  • Consumer prices
