Under a new scheme Community Pharmacies can now see you for the following 7 common conditions.
- impetigo
- infected insect bites
- shingles
- sinusitis
- sore throat
- urinary tract infections (UTIs)
If you go to a pharmacy with one of these conditions, the pharmacist will offer you advice, treatment or refer you to a GP or other healthcare professional.
They will then update your GP health record.
