Pharmacy First
If you need help with a common condition, visit your local pharmacy first — no appointment needed.
​
Pharmacists can give advice, suggest self-care, and provide treatment — and will refer you to a GP or other NHS service if needed.

Find your local participating pharmacy:
Visit the NHS pharmacy finder at https://www.nhs.uk/service-search/find-a-pharmacy or use the NHS App to locate a pharmacy offering the Pharmacy First service.
