Thermacare back wraps

Are thermacare back wraps or an equivalent available in Florence? I need to wear one every day to avoid any back issues. I’ll need 20 and this will take up too much suitcase room. Has anyone tried to buy this in Florence?

John,

Just be prepared the Thermacare will most likely be sold in a pharmacy and will be expensive. Sometimes, the quantity may differ than what we are used to in the States.

I never travel without a couple of thermacares for my back. Rather than the bulky back wrap I use the wrap designed for the neck/shoulder. It fits perfectly across my lower back. It also has an additional wrap in the package, so more bang for the buck. If you do decide to bring enough for your entire trip, by the end you will have freed up suitcase space for any purchases you make. Just a thought.
