💊 Over‑the‑Counter Medicines - A Gentle Reminder 💊

Did you know that many common, minor illnesses no longer need a GP prescription?

Conditions such as coughs and colds, sore throats, hay fever, mild skin conditions, indigestion, minor pain, nappy rash, head lice and many more can usually be treated safely at home with medicines available to buy from pharmacies, supermarkets or local shops.

✅ This means:

🔹You don’t need a GP appointment for these conditions
🔹You can get advice and treatment quickly from your community pharmacist
🔹GP appointments are kept available for patients who need them most

👩‍⚕️ Your pharmacist is trained to help and will advise you if you do need to book an appointment with us.
