Vitusapotek is a chain of 140 pharmacies in Norway owned and run by Norsk Medisinaldepot, a subsidiary of the German company Celesio AG. The chain is based in Oslo, and is the second largest in Norway, after Apotek1.

The chain was established in 2001 after the deregulation of the pharmacy market in Norway. The sister company Ditt Apotek is a franchise chain for independent pharmacies. Until 2007 the chain was a separate company, but is now merged into the mother company along with the wholesaler NMD Grossisthandel.
