If you have regular repeat prescriptions, we can collect your prescription from selected local surgeries so that you only need to make one visit to the pharmacy to collect your medication.
Please ask the pharmacist for further details.
Hoarding medicines can be dangerous. Once you have finished with them, we suggest that you return them to us for safe disposal. Please do not dump them in the household refuse.
All medications are dispensed with the drug details and dosage instructions on a high quality thermal labelling system. As part of our service, we are able to provide prescriptions which have dosage instructions in large type if you find our standard labels difficult to read. We are also able to provide a limited range of dosage labels in Braille.
We can dispense any valid prescription that has been written by a Doctor or Veterinarian who is registered in the United Kingdom, irrespective of the country the practice is based in (for example: the Republic of Ireland).
Before your prescription is dispensed, we can tell you the exact cost if required, as this can sometimes vary quite considerably between different Pharmacies. The price we quote is the price you pay - there are no extras.
Unfortunately, due to the current legislation, we are forced to charge VAT on veterinary prescriptions, currently at a rate of 17.5%
We are contracted with the DHSS to provide Domicillary Oxygen service and advice at home.
Should you require this service, we can be contacted 24 hours a day, and should be able to assist you, whatever problem you have.
We can advise on the safe use of your oxygen supply in the home, demonstrate how to change over your cylinders, and also explain how to obtain a portable cylinder if you need to travel away from your home.
We can supply all of your requirements: from a single strip of Elastoplast® through to a First Aid kit for 50 employees. We can advise on the statutory requirements for First Aid required by the Health and Safety at Work Act, and would be delighted to supply any items required, or to replenish your first aid kit.
topIf you are unable to reach a doctor and urgently require prescription medicines, we may be able to give you medication that has been prescribed to you in the past.
If you have an emergency prescription that needs to be dispensed outside of our normal opening hours, you should contact the Police, who will arrange for the pharmacist to be called out. Your prescription must be marked and endorsed by your doctor as being "URGENT" for this service.
topWe are able to give advice on what options are available to you. Your GP, Nobles A&E and the Greenhouse family planing clinic are able to offer contraceptive supplies free of charge. However, if you are unable to access any of these sources, or need supplies in a hurry, we are able to help.
We can supply Emergency Hormonal Contraception, or the 'Morning After Pill', to a woman over the age of 16 if it is appropriate. It is ESSENTIAL that this is taken as soon as possible to minimise the risk of pregnancy. In order for us to supply EHC, we will need to ask you some questions about yourself. We provide a confidential area for this to take place in, and we are happy for your partner or friend to be with you whilst this happens.
At present, there is a charge of £25 for supplying the 'Morning After Pill', but this may be waived shortly if the Department of Health agree to fund the service.
Worried and under 16? Contact your Doctor or the Greenhouse Centre AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. All consultations are completely confidential. Your parents will not find out.

topWe can advise you in confidence on the correct product for all types of incontinence, and supply products to meet a wide range of requirements.
