Pharmacie Nouvelle — Quatre Bornes

Pharmacie Nouvelle is an established community pharmacy serving the busy commercial centre of Quatre Bornes, one of the central plateau's most populated and commercially active towns. Centrally located close to the main bus terminus and shopping streets, the branch is a practical and convenient first stop for residents, commuters, and visitors who need pharmacy services while in the Quatre Bornes area.

The dispensary handles the full range of prescription medications, including those commonly prescribed by GPs and specialists across the central plateau. The pharmacy maintains reliable stock of the most frequently requested branded and generic medications, and the qualified pharmacist on duty throughout opening hours provides counselling on dosage, drug interactions, side effects, and safe storage. For specialist or less common prescriptions, the branch can typically fulfil orders within 24–48 hours through its established supplier network.

Over-the-counter products span a comprehensive range: analgesics, antihistamines, antacids, digestive health, vitamins and supplements, high-protection sun care, skincare, baby and infant care, and travel health essentials including oral rehydration salts and antimalarials. The cosmetics and personal care section stocks several established European brands popular with Mauritian shoppers. Wound care supplies, support bandages, blood pressure monitors, and blood glucose test strips are available alongside healthcare monitoring consumables.

Quatre Bornes is one of the most animated towns on the central plateau — the large weekly market, the density of shops along the pedestrian commercial zone, and the constant flow of passengers through the bus terminus give it an energy that is unique in inland Mauritius. The pharmacy serves the daily health needs of students, families, traders, and the many commuters passing through the area.

For visitors to Mauritius, community pharmacies provide an accessible first port of call for minor ailments — heat rash, stomach upsets, sunburn, and insect bites can often be addressed through pharmacist advice before a GP visit becomes necessary. Staff communicate in French, English, and Kreol. A duty rota ensures pharmacy coverage in the district on Sundays and public holidays.
