Pharmacy Updates

Posted on:

We would like to remind patients that all pharmacies are under increasing pressures currently due to medicine supply issues, increasing costs, reduced funding and staff shortages. Four hundred and thirty-two pharmacies permanently closed in England between 2023-2024.

Please note that for non-urgent prescriptions, pharmacies will need two working days to process orders once they have been received from our surgery. However, they are able to prioritise urgent prescriptions such as antibiotics, pain relief, and asthma treatment when requested.

Thank you for your understanding.
