Once registered, you’ll be able to get advice and treatment if your pharmacist thinks you need it.

Once registered, and you suffer from symptoms of a minor ailment, then you can just visit your pharmacy for a consultation. This replaces attending the GP practice for an appointment.

We will provide advice on self-care, supply a suitable medication or refer you to your GP or other healthcare professional if we feel this is the best course of action for you.

There are only certain medicines we can supply under this service.
