Our pharmacy staff are happy to check your blood pressure free of charge as a drop in service
We provide the Discharge Medicines Service. The service has been established to help you understand your medicines and any changes when you leave hospital and to reduce incidences of avoidable harm caused by medicines.
The emergency contraceptive pill (morning after pill) is available at our pharmacies without a prescription and if you qualify, free of charge. If you have had unprotected sex and are worried about getting pregnant taking emergency hormonal contraception within 0-5 days can help prevent pregnancy. EHC can be used if you have had sex without using contraception, or if you have had sex and there may be a failure with your usual method of contraception (split condom or if you have forgotten to take your usual contraceptive pill). The pill should be taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex - the earlier it is taken, the more effective it is. If you think you need EHC advice come and have a confidential consultation with our Pharmacies, in the pharmacy's private consultation room to make sure this is the right treatment for you. If EHC is considered to be suitable, the Pharmacist can supply it to you without a prescription and in most cases free of charge. However, if our pharmacist does not believe that it is suitable for you they will be able to direct you to either a doctor or clinic that can help you further. Although it is effective and there are no serious side effects of using EHC, this form of contraception should only be used in an emergency and not on a regular basis as a first choice method of contraception. Our pharmacies stock a full range of contraceptive products and our pharmacy staff can advise you on the many options available to you.
The NMS provides early support to patients to identify any problems they may be having with their medicines and identify solutions to these problems. These can include side effects. It is estimated that between 33 and 50% of medicines are not taken as prescribed. As part of the service any further information you may need is provided which should enable you to maximise the benefits of the medication you have been prescribed.The consultation is based on an initial discussion followed by 2 additional discussions at different times after starting the new medication prescribed to you
