Pharmacy context
This is a pharmacy in Edinburgh. Its main activities are dispensing NHS prescriptions and providing some people with their medicines in multi‐compartment compliance packs to help them take their medicines correctly. It provides NHS services including NHS Pharmacy First. And it supervises the administration of medicines to some people as part of a substance misuse service.
This was a reinspection following an inspection in January 2025 where the pharmacy did not meet Standard 4.3. This reinspection focused on the Standard which had previously not been met. The pharmacy has taken appropriate action to ensure that it stores all its medicines securely and in accordance with legislation.
