PharmacistPharmacy First

Don’t wait to see the doctor; pharmacists can give advice and treatment. Advice is FREE and if you don’t pay for prescriptions, then your treatment is also FREE

If you think that you or your child have any of the following conditions then why not use the Pharmacy First Scheme?

  • Allergy
  • Athletes Foot
  • Cold and Flu-like Symptoms
  • Cold Sores
  • Constipation
  • Contact Dermatitis
  • Coughs
  • Cystitis
  • Diarrhoea
  • Earache Eczema
  • Fever
  • Headache
  • Head lice
  • Indigestion
  • Infant Colic
  • Oral Thrush
  • Scabies
  • Soft Tissue Injuries (Bumps & Bruises)
  • Teething
  • Threadworms
  • Vaginal Thrush

Your local Doctors and Pharmacists have developed a new arrangement which means that, instead of waiting for an appointment with your Doctor for the conditions listed, you can get advice AND treatment from your local pharmacy. Not only that, but if you are exempt from prescription charges, you will receive the treatment from the Pharmacist FREE of charge

You may go straight to one of the pharmacies taking part in this scheme, where the Pharmacist will see you without an appointment.
Please take with you evidence of registration with your Doctor. This could be your NHS medical card, a repeat prescription slip, or a letter from your surgery. If you do not have this, then please ask the receptionist for a form to take to the pharmacy
