Which names repeat across the city?

Leon Pharm covers the north, the middle near the beach and the market area around Bezalel, plus one branch in Haifa. Givol has a branch at HaYarkon Street 288 and a second in Kochav HaTzafon, with others in Jerusalem and Be'er Sheva. The register lists each branch separately and does not say whether they share an owner.

Is it worth comparing?

A prescription or licence works at any authorized pharmacy, so a patient can shop across all 29. A 2025 academic review put flower at 15 to 39 shekels a gram, and prices are set product by product. Verdex profiles two of the 29, which is a count of what we have checked, not of what exists. The national rules, including the 15 gram fine threshold, are on the Israel hub.
