Your local pharmacy team are qualified healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to help with many health concerns. Additionally, community pharmacies are now the first level of treatment for a range of seven common health conditions via the Pharmacy First service, which covers:

• Earache (1-17 years)
• Impetigo (1 year and over)
• Infected insect bite (1 year and over)
• Shingles (18 years and over)
• Sinusitis (12 years and over)
• Sore throat (5 years and over)
• Uncomplicated urinary tract infections in women (16-64 years)

If you complete an eConsult for these health conditions we are most likely to refer you back to the Pharmacy First service so please use that service first. Your chosen pharmacy will provide us with a report of the treatment they have provided and if your symptoms suggest it’s something more serious, they’ll ensure you get the care you need.

Please note, normal prescription charges will apply for prescription only medicines.
