All pharmacists in Swindon are now able to treat seven common conditions.

Patients in Swindon are now able to visit a high street pharmacy to revieve treatment for seven common conditions, without the need to see a GP.

The highly trained pharmacists are able to assess and treat sinusitis, sore throats, earaches, infected insects bites, impetigo, shingles and uncomplicated uninary tract infections in women under the age of 65. 

You can find your local pharmacy by visiting the NHS website: @FindaPharmacy

 Please note the the Boots Pharmacy onsite at the Great Western Hospital is not a community pharmacy, and can only provide perscriptions for patients being discharged from hospital.
