Medical disclaimer

Pharmacy Compare is an information directory, not medical advice.

Pharmacy Compare is an information directory. It lists NHS community pharmacies and describes the services they are commissioned to provide. It is not medical advice, and nothing on this site should be used as a substitute for speaking to a qualified health professional.

In an emergency

If you’re unsure which applies, 111 can help you decide. These lines and links are provided by the NHS, not by us.

Not a substitute for professional advice

Nothing on this website — pharmacy listings, service descriptions, town guides or anything else — is medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. If you have a question about your health, a medicine, or a symptom, speak to a registered pharmacist, your GP or another qualified professional.

Never delay seeking professional medical advice because of something you read here. Where we describe services such as Pharmacy First, we describe what the NHS says the service covers — not what any individual should do about their own health.

Pharmacy information can change

Opening hours, contact details and service availability can all change at short notice — pharmacies reduce hours temporarily, suspend services or close. We refresh our data from official NHS sources and date every page, but we cannot guarantee every detail is correct at the moment you read it. Always confirm directly with the pharmacy before travelling or making a specific journey for a service.

We do not sell or supply anything

Pharmacy Compare does not sell, supply or deliver medicines, and does not facilitate prescriptions, appointments or consultations. We have no involvement in any care or service you receive from a pharmacy listed here. Any interaction you have with a pharmacy — clinical or otherwise — is entirely between you and that pharmacy, which is regulated by the General Pharmaceutical Council (or the relevant regulator in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland), not by us.

External links

Some pages link to external websites such as the NHS website or a pharmacy’s own site. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, accuracy or availability. A link is a convenience, not an endorsement.

No warranty

The site is provided “as is”. We work hard to keep the data accurate and current, but to the fullest extent permitted by law, Pharmacy Compare accepts no liability for any loss arising from use of this website or reliance on its contents. Your use of the site is at your own risk.

Changes to this disclaimer

We may update this page from time to time. The current version always lives here. Questions about this disclaimer? Email info@pharmacycompare.uk.
