The “Pharmacy First” service aims to alleviate pressures on our GP Practices and make healthcare more accessible!

You can now self-refer to a Pharmacy if you are experiencing:

• Sinusitis (adults and children aged 12 years and over)
• Sore throat (adults and children aged 5 years and over)
• Earache (children aged 1 year to 17 years)
• Infected insect bite (adults and children aged 1 year and over)
• Impetigo (adults and children aged 1 year and over)
• Shingles (adults aged 18 years and over)
• Urinary tract infection (women, aged 16 to 64 years)

The pharmacist will see you for these issues and, if necessary, can prescribe medications including antibiotics. Contact a local pharmacy directly to enquire or click here to ind your local pharmacy.
