Finding an open pharmacy at midnight is hard in a country you don't know well. Eczanow was built for exactly that moment.

Open the app and you see the pharmacies serving your province right now. During the day it lists the pharmacies that are open; after 7 PM, on Sundays and on public holidays it lists the on-duty pharmacies — the ones required to stay open through the night. The current mode is written at the top of the screen, along with when it changes.

WHAT IT DOES

• Puts the closest pharmacy first, with distance and an estimated drive time
• Shows every nearby chemist as a pin on the map
• Calls with one tap — in smaller towns the on-duty pharmacist may serve on call, so phoning ahead matters as much as directions
• Hands navigation to the map app you already use (Google Maps, Yandex)
• Shows landmark directions when an address is not enough: "across from the emergency entrance of the state hospital"
• Search by name, district or address — typing without Turkish characters works ("kadikoy" finds Kadıköy)
• Home screen widget: the nearest on-duty pharmacy, without opening the app

ALL 81 PROVINCES OF TÜRKİYE

Data comes from the official on-duty rosters published by provincial pharmacists' chambers and is refreshed every day. The app always shows when the list was last updated — if the data is old, we tell you instead of hiding it.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

Pharmacy opening hours are set province by province, so they differ across the country; in some provinces the on-duty shift starts on Saturday afternoon. On public and religious holidays only on-duty pharmacies are open all day, and a 24 hour drugstore is not something you can count on outside the on-duty rota. The app accounts for these differences.

In small towns the on-duty pharmacy may keep an "on-call" shift instead of waiting in the shop, meaning the pharmacist comes when phoned. We recommend calling before you set out.

LOCATION PRIVACY

Your location never leaves your device. The nearest-pharmacy ordering is calculated on your phone; no coordinates are sent to our servers. The app also works without location permission — you can pick a province yourself.

Eczanow is not a health advice app. It does not recommend medication or provide medical guidance; it only lists the location and contact details of pharmacies. In an emergency call 112.
