Farmacias Ahumada is a pharmacy in Calama, Antofagasta. It is listed at Sup. Líder - Av. Balmaceda 3242, Interior, 1390000 Calama, Antofagasta, one of the local businesses residents and visitors turn to. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as tienda de belleza y salud, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Choosing a clinic, practice or pharmacy is about trust and convenience: check the opening hours, whether it works with FONASA (the public health fund), with your Isapre (private insurer) or only with private patients, and how to book an appointment (pedir hora), often online, by app or WhatsApp. In the public system primary care is at the CESFAM or consultorio where you are registered, minor emergencies go to a SAPU or SAR, and the SAMU ambulance number is 131. Outside shop hours, on Sundays and on public holidays there is always a duty pharmacy (farmacia de turno) in your comuna; bring the prescription for medicines that need one, and ask about bioequivalent generics, marked with a yellow logo and usually cheaper.

The business lists hours for all seven days of the week. The most common schedule is 8:30–21:30. Also bear in mind that 1 January, 1 May, 18 and 19 September and 25 December are mandatory retail holidays, when most shops close. The listed phone number is 600 222 4000. From abroad dial +56 followed by the number. Calling or sending a WhatsApp message ahead is the norm for bookings and appointments. Its website is farmaciasahumada.cl, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

With 3.6 out of 5 on Google from 13 reviews, it sits mid-range for pharmacies in Calama; the detailed comments usually say more than the score about service, prices and waiting times.
