Advice and treatment
Pharmacists can give you advice on a range of conditions and suggest medicines that can help.
They may also be able to offer treatment and some prescription medicine for some conditions, without you needing to see a GP (this is called Pharmacy First). Conditions they can treat as part of Pharmacy First are:
· earache (aged 1 to 17 years)
· impetigo (aged 1 year and over)- a contagious skin infection
· infected insect bites (aged 1 year and over)
· shingles (aged 18 years and over)- infection that causes a painful rash
· sinusitis (aged 12 years and over)- infection of the sinuses (behind the forehead, cheeks and nose)
· sore throat (aged 5 years and over)
· urinary tract infections or UTIs (women aged 16 to 64 years)
The pharmacist will offer you advice, treatment or refer you to a GP or another healthcare professional if needed.
Pharmacies will update your GP health record.
If you are not within these age ranges, a pharmacist can still offer advice, but you may need to see a GP for treatment.
