Gate-side meds and basics in Terminal 1
This Pharmacy in Terminal 1 sits airside after security, so you can grab last‑minute meds without backtracking to the landside shops. It’s a standard Italian airport pharmacy setup: over-the-counter products on open shelves, prescription counter at the back, and some travel extras near the entrance.
Hours generally track Terminal 1’s traffic peaks, opening early for the first departures around 06:00 and staying open into the evening, usually close to the last Schengen flights. If you have a very late Ryanair or easyJet departure, check the board and swing by earlier rather than assuming it stays open past 22:00.
Expect typical Italian pharmacy pricing: branded painkillers or cold medicine around €6–€10, basic toiletries in the €3–€7 range, and small travel-sized items a bit higher than downtown Naples. You’ll also find bandages, basic first-aid, sunscreen at Mediterranean-strength SPFs, and stomach meds useful after a heavy meal in the city.
The staff handle prescriptions in Italian and English, but they do need exact drug names or the original box; don’t rely on describing “small blue pills.” Many common US brands have different names here, so bring the generic name (e.g., ibuprofen, cetirizine) written down. Payment is standard for Terminal 1 shops: cards widely accepted, including contactless and major international credit cards.
Practical tip: if you’re prone to motion sickness on the short hops to Rome or Milan, buy your remedies here in Terminal 1 before boarding; cabin crews on NAP flights rarely carry anything beyond basic water and bags.
