The Common Conditions Service

 Patients can be supported by experienced and trained pharmacists, who can:

• Assess symptoms

• Provide advice on self-care

• Recommend or supply appropriate treatments (where clinically appropriate)

• Advise that patients contact their GP, if further care is needed

The service follows national clinical guidance to ensure patient safety and high-quality care.

Important: Not all conditions are suitable for this service and not all will require a prescription medication. Your pharmacist will be best placed to advise you on the correct treatment for your symptoms
