So, what is Pharmacy First? Pharmacy First is an NHS service that allows pharmacists to provide advice and treatment for a range of common health conditions without the need for a GP appointment. The service aims to make healthcare more accessible.
Sore Throats
A sore throat can be more than just a minor irritation, it can make swallowing, speaking, and even sleeping uncomfortable. Through Pharmacy First at Coda Pharmacy, you can speak to one of our trained pharmacists who will assess your symptoms and determine whether treatment is needed. In some cases, antibiotics or other NHS-approved medicines can be provided directly, without the need for a doctor’s visit. It’s quick, efficient, and gives you peace of mind knowing you’re getting safe, professional care from home.
Ear Infections
Ear infections are common and can cause pain, pressure, or muffled hearing. Instead of waiting for a GP appointment, Coda Pharmacy makes it easy to access help through Pharmacy First. Our pharmacists can review your symptoms, advise on the best next steps, and, where appropriate, issue treatment through the NHS service. Whether it’s pain relief or medication, we’ll guide you through the process and even deliver your prescriptions straight to your door, completely free of charge.
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
For women aged 16 to 64, mild urinary tract infections (UTIs) can also be treated under Pharmacy First. If you notice symptoms such as burning when you urinate or needing to go more often, you can contact Coda Pharmacy for a confidential consultation with a pharmacist. If suitable, treatment can be provided right away, saving you the time and hassle of seeing a GP. With our free NHS prescription delivery, you can receive your medication discreetly and quickly, right at home.
