Abstract: With the end of the Second World War, pharmacists arriving in Lower Silesia (Poland) had to face new and numerous problems resulting from post-war disorganisation. The article lists the most important of these: the destruction of pharmacies, shortages of supplies and equipment, staff shortages and crime. A problem characteristic of Lower Silesia, and indeed the whole of the “Recovered Territories”, that was not present in Central Poland was a sense of alienation. Pharmacies overfl owing with German objects intensified the negative feelings accompanying settlers arriving in the area. At the same time, they were one of the most important points on the map of settlements – the prosperity and health of the first inhabitants depended on their presence.
