Pharmacy First
The Pharmacy First scheme enables your local pharmacy to treat some common conditions with prescription-only medicines, without you visiting your GP.
Participating pharmacies offer this service during all their opening hours including any late nights or weekends, so it may be quicker to see your pharmacist than waiting for an appointment with your GP.
