Presentation

Farmácia Moreno was founded in 1804 as Drogaria Félix & Filho, specialising in the production of plant and animal-based products for "treating ailments". In 1890, it was acquired by the physician and pharmacist Rodrigo Moreno, becoming known as Farmácia S. Domingos. The current name dates back to 1928, when the pharmacy was passed on to his nephew António Moreno. Today, Farmácia Moreno is staffed by a young, professional, dynamic, and dedicated team aiming to provide the right products and services for the community it serves.
