The short answer

This policy covers one-off online store orders (delivery and pick-up) from Farmacias Similares, there is no paid subscription or membership product documented, so nothing recurring to cancel. For delivery orders you cancel by telling the courier at hand-over which items you are refusing and returning them on the spot; voluntary returns of items you already accepted must be taken back to the pharmacy named in your order confirmation the same day you received them. Pick-up orders must be cancelled at the pharmacy you selected within 5 days of the purchase confirmation, quoting your order number. Returns of 'productos exclusivos' are handled by email to ventasenlinea@fsimilares.com with the order number and at least 3 photos if the item arrived damaged; refunds go back to the original bank card and the timing follows your bank's rules, with a 5-business-day rule where you refused goods that did not match their description. In the US, Dr. Simi (Farmacias de Similares TX LLC) runs a separate 30-day unopened-product return policy via customerservice@drsimi.com.

How long does a Farmacias Similar refund take?

Most merchants agree to a straightforward refund within 1 to 3 working days of a well-written email request. Once agreed, the money itself takes another 3 to 5 working days to land, that part is card-network processing and no merchant can skip it. If nothing has arrived 10 working days after a written “refund approved”, reply on the same thread asking for the ARN (acquirer reference number), which your bank can trace.

Note Farmacias Similar’s own policy works on a 5-day window, ask inside it and the request is routine; outside it you’re relying on goodwill or statutory rights.

Refund FAQ for Farmacias Similar

It depends how you bought it. **Delivery:** the terms tell you to hand the items back to the courier at the door and say which ones you're cancelling, the return process starts from there. If you already accepted the parcel, the pharmacy named in your order confirmation can only process the return **the same day you received it**. **Pick-up:** go back to the branch you collected from, give your order number and the items. Refunds go to the original card, on your bank's timetable. For 'exclusive' products, email ventasenlinea@fsimilares.com with the order number and at least three photos if it's damaged.
