In case of doubt about the characteristics of a product, the customer can contact a pharmacist at the following number: +352 511540 or by email info@mapharmacie.lu. The photos are not contractual.
Stock limit
The products ordered and the promotional offers offered by Pharmacie Gillain on its website mapharmacie.lu are only valid within the limits of available stocks.
Product offers and prices are only valid as long as they are visible on the mapharmacie.lu website and within the limits of available stocks.
In order to guarantee the maximum availability of the products put online, the Gillain Pharmacy updates stocks in an automated way.

The financial conditions for the various destinations are also available on the “Delivery methods” page.
The delivery time begins to run once the order has been fully paid for. This time will be specified on the customer’s order verification page and depends on the delivery solution chosen. Orders validated before 12pm are processed the same day, orders validated after 12pm will be processed the next day. The normal delivery time is 1 to 3 days.
Pharmacie Gillain cannot be held responsible in the event of delay attributable to the carrier.
A customer who refuses the delivery of his order cannot claim a refund or a new shipment of the said package.
A customer who has given an incorrect address or telephone number (necessary for delivery) cannot claim a refund or a new shipment of his package.
The Customer is obliged to check the conformity of the delivered goods at the time of delivery.

Article 8: Compliance and legal guarantee
For defects in conformity, the customer must mention as soon as possible upon delivery, in accordance with article 8 of these GTC, all defects in conformity with Pharmacie Gillain, via the mapharmacie.lu website from the contact page accessible at https://mapharmacie.lu by choosing the theme “Product return”, specifying the following information:
Order number
Name First name and address
Reference of the item(s) to be returned
Reason for return for non-compliance
However, this warranty is limited to normal use of the product. If the lack of conformity is proven, the Customer can either obtain the repair of the product within 30 days when possible, or its replacement.
In the event that the customer’s choice results in a cost that is clearly disproportionate compared to the other option offered to him, in view of the value of the product or the importance of the defect identified, Pharmacie Gillain reserves the right to opt for the second solution offered.
Similarly, in the event of an impossible replacement or repair, Gillain Pharmacy undertakes to return the price within 14 days in exchange for the return of the product by the customer to the following address: Pharmacie Gillain – Returns – 2, rue du Commerce – L-3450 DUDELANGE
Pharmacie Gillain is not liable for any apparent defects that the customer may have noticed and of which he may have been convinced.
However, all products benefit from the legal guarantee against hidden defects which make them unfit for the use for which they are intended, or which reduce this use to such an extent that the buyer would not have acquired them, or would have given only a lower price, if he had known them.
Any liability of Pharmacie Gillain is exclusively limited to the value of the product in question, determined on the date of its sale.
In case of a return, under the conditions of this article, the customer must return the product to the above-mentioned address after having obtained the return code for his request by phone or e-mail info@mapharmacie.lu. In addition, the customer has an after-sales service that can be contacted by telephone (Tel: +352 511540 or by e-mail info@mapharmacie.lu)
Article 9: Right of withdrawal
The Consumer Customer has a withdrawal period of 14 days from the receipt of his order. The right of withdrawal does not entail any penalty.
To obtain a refund or exchange, the customer must return the new products (with the invoice) at his own expense and under his responsibility, in their original packaging, intact, accompanied by any accessories (such as and among other operating instructions and documentation) to the following address: Pharmacie Gillain – Returns – 2, rue du Commerce – L-3450 DUDELANGE
The shipping costs related to the return of the products are not reimbursed by Pharmacie Gillain (unless the error is the responsibility of the latter).
For a better treatment of your file, we advise you to formulate your request for return of goods by using the contact form: Product return
Attention, for hygienic and regulatory reasons, some products do not fall within the scope of this right of withdrawal, in particular medicines.
Indeed, medicinal products are health products which, by their nature, are likely to deteriorate and which must imperatively integrate a secure supply chain preventing any reintegration into the circuit of a product that has left (sold).
In addition, the following pharmaceutical products cannot be returned:
– Products whose protective caps or seals have been opened.
– Products without a lid intended for bodily use since they cannot be reintroduced into the sales channel.
– Baby foods and food supplements that are sensitive to storage conditions.
– the supply of goods or services whose price depends on fluctuations on the financial market beyond the company’s control that may occur during the withdrawal period.
– all medications
Any merchandise that is unpackaged or bears fitting, use/wear marks will be systematically refused, especially if it is a product in direct contact with the skin.
Article 10: Protection of personal data
In the course of operating the mapharmacie.lu website, Pharmacie Gillain is obliged to collect personal data. The collection of personal information for the purpose of distance selling is mandatory, as this information is essential for the processing and delivery of orders. The lack of information leads to the non-validation of the order. These data will be processed in accordance with the purposes intended at the time of collection. Pharmacie Gillain undertakes never to communicate the details of its customers to a third party. The customer has the possibility to consult and also modify his information at any time via the My Account page.
