Watsons is transforming how Singaporeans access healthcare with the launch of the country’s first-ever retail pharmacy eConsultation service. This pioneering digital platform enables customers to receive free, professional healthcare advice from certified pharmacists anytime, anywhere through the Watsons website or mobile app.
Convenient, Personalised Healthcare at Your Fingertips
With the new Watsons Pharmacy eConsultation service, customers can connect directly with licensed Watsons pharmacists for guidance on minor ailments, travel health, supplements, and medications, all from the comfort of home. Each consultation comes with personalised recommendations, full price transparency, and the option to order suggested products online for doorstep delivery.
The service provides professional advice for a range of non-emergency health concerns, including:
- Cough, cold, fever, and pain relief
- Digestive issues such as diarrhoea, constipation, or vomiting
- Mouth and throat conditions like sore throat and cold sores
- Eye irritations such as allergic conjunctivitis and dry eyes
- Skin and hair concerns including eczema, allergies, and hair loss
All consultations are conducted with end-to-end encryption and strict data privacy protocols, ensuring complete confidentiality and peace of mind.
How It Works
- Visit the Watsons website or mobile app to access the eConsultation service.
- Register and join the consultation queue.
- Speak directly with a certified Watsons pharmacist for expert advice.
- Purchase any recommended products online and have them delivered to your doorstep.
Each session typically lasts around 15 minutes, and customers purchasing pharmacy-only medications will need to present a valid photo ID.
Fast, Flexible Delivery with Secure Payments
Watsons offers a wide selection of pharmacy-only and over-the-counter medications, from cough remedies and pain relievers to eczema creams, antihistamines, and health supplements like fish oil and glucosamine.
Customers can make secure online payments via VISA or MasterCard and choose from three convenient delivery options:
- Express Delivery: Within 3 hours of order

The service operates Monday to Friday, 12:00 PM to 5:30 PM (excluding public holidays) and is available to all Singapore residents. Customers under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
