Local pharmacies and their contact details

A complete list of pharmacies, with a list of services each offers, is available in Scotland's Service Directory.

Delivery Service

Do you or your family find it hard to get out to collect your prescription? Some local chemists offer a free home delivery service for your medication. Ask in your pharmacy for details.

Pharmacy First

NHS Pharmacy First Scotland is an NHS service provided by your local community pharmacy.

If you have a minor illness, a pharmacy is the first place you should go for advice.

You do not usually need an appointment and you can go to any pharmacy.

Your local pharmacist or a trained member of the pharmacy team will give you advice and provide medicine if needed. They may need to refer you to another healthcare professional such as your GP practice, dentist, optometrist or another NHS service if they feel your condition needs further investigation or more specialist care.
