Community Pharmacy

Community pharmacists dispense your prescriptions and other medicines, offer testing and screening for common conditions and can advise on minor ailments.

Pharmacists and chemists also offer advice on common problems such as:

  • Coughs, colds and flu

  • Women’s health
  • Skin conditions

You can talk to your pharmacist in confidence, even about the most personal symptoms and you don’t need to make an appointment. Most pharmacies now have a private consultation area where patients can discuss issues with pharmacy staff without being overheard by other members of the public.

  • dispensing
  • repeat dispensing
