It is important to note that many medications in the Czech Republic are only available with a prescription from a doctor.
In addition to conventional medicine, alternative and holistic approaches to healthcare are also popular in Czech culture. Many Czechs believe in the healing properties of natural remedies, herbal medicine, and traditional practices such as acupuncture and homeopathy. It is not uncommon for individuals to seek both conventional and alternative treatments for their health conditions.

Czechs also place great importance on preventive healthcare. Regular check-ups and screenings are encouraged to detect and prevent potential health issues. The Czech healthcare system emphasizes early intervention and patient education to promote overall well-being.


The Czech healthcare system is ranked 13th in the world by the World Health Organization. There are public and private healthcare providers in the country, but most Czechs use the public system. The public healthcare system is funded by a combination of national health insurance and taxes. Medical care is generally of high quality and affordable for patients.
