The Uruguayan pharmacy never sees your ID. A fingerprint reader tells the pharmacist only if you are still inside your limits: 10 g in the last 7 days, 40 g in 30 days and 480 g in a year. Only citizens and permanent residents aged 18 or over who have registered with the regulator IRCCA at a Correo Uruguayo post office can buy, and tourists cannot register.

Since August 1, 2026 a sealed 5 g packet costs 500 to 630 pesos. IRCCA counted 60 selling pharmacies in April 2026; Verdex lists 67, 30 of them in Montevideo, among them Farmacia Bvar. España 2319 in Parque Rodó and the Punta del Este pharmacy on Avda. Pedragosa Sierra.

Four varieties, fixed prices, a map with gaps

Prices are set by IRCCA, not by the pharmacy, so comparing shops on price is pointless. The choice is the variety.

VarietyPrice per 5 g, from Aug 1, 2026Before
Alfa500 pesos485
Beta510 pesos505
Gamma580 pesos565
Épsilon (up to 20% THC)630 pesos615

Épsilon, added in October 2024, is the best seller, according to IRCCA's report for January to April 2026. What differs between pharmacies is stock and location. The 67 Verdex entries sit in 14 of Uruguay's 19 departments: Montevideo 30, Canelones 9, Maldonado 8, Rocha 5 and Salto 4, with single pharmacies in places such as Paysandú. IRCCA's April 2026 count found none in Colonia, Durazno, Florida, Soriano or Treinta y Tres.

  • Registered as club member or home grower? You cannot also buy here; switching to pharmacy purchase needs a three-month wait.
  • Fingerprints unreadable? The post office prints a dispensing ticket valid for 30 days.
  • Only 34,122 of 88,955 registered buyers bought anything in April 2026, so call ahead rather than assume stock.

The registration steps are in our pharmacy buying guide. Anyone offering club cannabis by delivery is outside the system; see the IRCCA warning on fake clubs.

Questions about this list

Can tourists buy cannabis at a Uruguayan pharmacy?

No. Registration needs a Uruguayan cédula showing citizenship or permanent residence, according to IRCCA, so visitors cannot use pharmacies. IRCCA's director said in February 2026 the institute is studying access for non-residents, but nothing was in force as of September 2026.

How much cannabis can I buy at a pharmacy in Uruguay?

Up to 10 g in any 7 days, 40 g in any 30 days and 480 g in any 365 days, sold in sealed 5 g packets. The system counts back from each purchase rather than by calendar month.

How do I find a pharmacy that sells cannabis?

IRCCA publishes a list of member pharmacies, and the list changes as pharmacies join. Verdex's Uruguay page shows those it has matched, but a pharmacy may still be out of the variety you want, so phone first.
