Pharmacy First

Community pharmacies can now treat several conditions without a GP appointment, which is often the fastest route for someone who cannot get a GP slot.

This guide lists the seven conditions a pharmacist can treat and the age range for each, explains that the consultation itself is free, and covers the other services pharmacies offer including blood pressure checks and contraception. It also says when a pharmacy is not the right place to go.

The full guidance is written in Persian for the people using it. Switch to فارسی to read it.
