Pharmacy context

This internet pharmacy is set in a commercial property in Beare Green village. The pharmacy opens six days a week. It provides face-to-face and online services. It dispenses people’s private prescriptions. But it doesn’t offer any NHS services. The pharmacy sells over-the-counter (OTC) medicines in-person or through its website or a third-party website. It uses patient group directions to supply prescription-medicines online or to people who visit its premises. And people can get their flu jab or travel vaccination at the pharmacy too.

This was the first routine inspection of the pharmacy since it was registered in June 2024.
