Inspection outcome: Standards met

Pharmacy context

The pharmacy is in a business premises near Dewsbury town centre. It does not provide NHS services. It provides a private prescribing service to help people treat skin conditions, including acne, rosacea, anti-ageing, and skin texture. The pharmacy dispenses the private prescriptions generated by the pharmacy’s prescriber. And it provides people with access to its services via a website, www.uncouth.co.uk. 

This was a reinspection following an inspection in March 2025, where the pharmacy did not meet Standards 1.1, 1.2, 1.6 and 4.2. This reinspection focused on those Standards which had previously not been met. Following the last inspection the pharmacy has formalised its standard operating procedures and its risk assessments associated with the services and treatments it provides. The pharmacy uses these documents as the basis of audits it has carried out. This provides assurance of adherence to procedures and that services are provided safely. The pharmacy keeps records of consultations and information around prescribing decisions to support safe provision of its services.
