T1’s Farmatodo is the easiest place to grab last‑minute meds
Right in Terminal T1, Farmatodo covers the basics you actually need before a flight: painkillers, cold medicine, stomach remedies, and personal care items. Prices are closer to city pharmacy levels than typical airport markups, so a box of paracetamol or ibuprofen usually runs around local-street pricing instead of double. It feels more like a neighborhood drugstore that happens to sit in an international terminal.
Farmatodo in T1 stocks common over-the-counter brands plus generic equivalents, which helps if you’re flying long-haul out of Bogotá and don’t want to gamble on feeling fine for 10+ hours. You’ll also find toiletries in travel sizes, from toothpaste and deodorant to contact lens solution that fits 100 ml rules. It’s one of the few spots in the terminal where you can quickly fix a forgotten item without hunting across multiple shops.
Beyond medicine, the T1 Farmatodo usually has basic snacks and bottled drinks, often cheaper than the coffee chains two gates away. Expect standard Colombian packaged snacks under COP 10,000 and water or soft drinks in the COP 4,000–7,000 range. It’s not a full grocery run, but enough to stock your personal item for a 6–8 hour flight.
Practical tip: stop at Farmatodo in T1 before clearing your final gate area, so you can compare prices once and avoid paying extra at smaller kiosks closer to boarding.
