Prescriptions

Local Pharmacies

Your local pharmacy is the place to go to get any prescription medicines and clinical advice for minor health concerns. 

What to expect from your pharmacy team

Pharmacy teams play a key role in providing quality healthcare.

Pharmacists are experts in medicines, and use their clinical expertise, together with their practical knowledge, to advise you on minor health concerns, such as coughs, colds, aches and pains, as well as healthy eating and stopping smoking.

Pharmacists can also help you decide whether you need to see a medical health professional.

They can help you consider the alternatives next time you’re thinking of making a doctor’s appointment.

You can always call NHS 111, which will help you find the right NHS service.
