Healthcare in Ibiza: what visitors and residents should know
How local care works in Ibiza and across Balearic Islands, Spain — and where an online doctor fits alongside it.
Ibiza's public healthcare is provided by IB-Salut, the Servei de Salut de les Illes Balears, with Catalan co-official alongside Spanish. State healthcare is run at regional level, so the rules you meet depend on where you are rather than on Spain as a whole. EU, EEA and Swiss visitors holding an EHIC (or a UK GHIC) can use public primary care and emergency departments on the same terms as residents, though you will normally be asked for the card plus photo ID at reception. Outside surgery hours, pharmacies operate a rota — the farmacia de guardia — and the duty pharmacy is posted in the window of every closed chemist. Ibiza has the sharpest seasonal swing of any Spanish destination: the island's population multiplies over the summer, and its health services absorb a young, short-stay visitor population concentrated into a few months around Sant Antoni, Platja d'en Bossa and Ibiza Town. The resulting demand pattern is genuinely distinctive — dehydration, sun exposure, minor injuries and sexual-health concerns predominate, often among visitors who are on the island for only a few days and have no local registration. Specialist capacity is island-scale, with onward transfer to Palma for anything more complex, so the same island constraint applies as elsewhere in the Balearics. Out of season the island empties and much of the private provision aimed at visitors closes.

Menopause Medication in Ibiza - FAQs
Can I get menopause medication online in Ibiza?
You can book a video consultation 24/7 with one of our English-speaking, licensed doctors while in Ibiza. The doctor discusses your symptoms and takes a full personal and family medical history, including any current medicines. Treatment is prescribed only if clinically suitable. Some patients are referred for an in-person examination or specialist care first.
What happens after the video consultation in Ibiza?
If the doctor prescribes a medicine, you receive a private electronic prescription as a PDF by email to show to the pharmacist. The doctor may instead refer you for an in-person examination first. A follow-up review is advised after about 3 months, then at least once a year.
Do I need to visit a clinic in Ibiza for menopause medication?
Consultations are by video, but our doctors take a full personal and family history to decide if an in-person check is needed first. If you have or have had breast or another estrogen-dependent cancer, unexplained vaginal bleeding, a past blood clot or clotting disorder, a stroke, heart attack or angina, active liver disease, or menopause symptoms before 40, our doctors refer you for in-person or specialist care instead of prescribing online.
Can you buy HRT over the counter in Spain?
No. Every menopause hormone therapy product in Spain requires a medical prescription and cannot be bought over the counter. Under Spanish law, any licensed doctor may prescribe prescription-only medicines. If our doctors determine after a video consultation that treatment is clinically appropriate, they can issue a private electronic prescription. The pharmacist in Spain verifies the prescription before dispensing.
Will a Spanish pharmacy accept a UK or US HRT prescription?
Under Spanish law, the rule allowing prescriptions from other EU countries to be dispensed does not cover prescriptions from the UK or the US, so you need a Spanish prescription. Additionally, medicine brand names often differ between countries, and some foreign products have no Spanish equivalent. For example, no combined estrogen-and-progestogen patch is sold in Spain. You should bring details of your current HRT, and our doctors can discuss an alternative available in Spain.
Can I start HRT online for the first time?
You can have an initial assessment online, but no menopause guideline endorses starting HRT through an online consultation. In Spain, product information states that doctors must take a full personal and family medical history before starting treatment. Our doctors evaluate this by video consultation and decide whether an in-person examination, such as a breast or pelvic check, is required first. Certain health conditions always require in-person or specialist care rather than remote care.
How do HRT renewals work?
To renew your HRT, have the name, strength and dose of your current medication ready for your consultation. Our doctors will review your symptoms, health history and blood pressure to assess whether the treatment remains suitable for you. Clinical guidance advises reviewing HRT after about 3 months when starting or changing a dose, and at least once a year thereafter. If continuing treatment is clinically appropriate, a private electronic prescription is sent to you as a PDF by email to present at a pharmacy.
Do I need blood tests for HRT if I am over 45?
In women aged 45 and over, menopause is usually recognised from symptoms and menstrual changes without routine hormone blood tests. During your video consultation, our doctors review your medical history, blood pressure and weight, and may request blood tests if your history calls for them. However, if the non-hormonal medicine fezolinetant is considered, liver blood tests are required before starting treatment and must be repeated monthly for the first three months.
Is HRT a contraceptive?
No, HRT is not a contraceptive method and cannot be relied on to prevent pregnancy. If you are sexually active and wish to avoid pregnancy, you still need effective contraception. Clinical guidance advises continuing contraception for 2 years after your last natural period if you are under 50, and for 1 year if you are over 50. Most women can stop at age 55. Withdrawal bleeds on HRT, or having no bleeding on HRT, do not count as natural periods, so agree with the doctor when to stop, continuing until 55 if in doubt. If you use hormonal contraception, ask our doctors during your consultation for guidance.
How much does it cost?
The consultation fee is clearly shown on the doctor's offer before you choose an appointment time and pay. This fee covers your video consultation and medical evaluation with one of our licensed doctors. If a prescription is clinically indicated and issued, the cost of the prescribed medicine is completely separate from our consultation fee and is paid directly to the dispensing pharmacy.
When do I need urgent or in-person care?
Bleeding is common in the first 6 months of HRT and within 3 months of a change. You should arrange an in-person medical examination if you experience unexpected bleeding that is heavy, continues beyond those windows, or starts after a bleed-free spell, bleeding after your periods have stopped for a year, or a new breast lump. If you develop possible signs of a blood clot or stroke—such as sudden chest pain, shortness of breath, a painful swollen leg, sudden weakness or numbness on one side of the body, or difficulty speaking—call the emergency services on 112 immediately.
