Pharmacists (sometimes called Chemists) can offer advice on medicines and how to take them. They can also offer advice on common complaints including coughs, colds, aches and pains, and other health issues such as healthy eating and giving up smoking. You can talk to your pharmacist in confidence, even about personal symptoms.
Most pharmacists now have a quiet area away from other customers where you can speak to the pharmacist more privately. Some pharmacies offer a collection and delivery service for prescriptions and many are now open longer hours. Call your pharmacy for details and opening times. You can buy a wide range of medicines from your local pharmacy to relieve your symptoms of coughs, colds and flu and for pain relief.
