Please be aware that there are currently major drug shortages of the most basic drugs!

Drug shortages have been constant in pharmacy for years now (something that sadly the government refuses to deal with properly) and it is not at all uncommon for us to have to purchase drugs in at a higher price than we will get paid for them.

However last month and going into this month may be the most frustrating ever with aspirin, fluoxetine, rosuvastatin, ramipril (to name a few) all going short in the market and pushing prices to crazy high levels or simply being unavailable. The article below (hopefully link will work) explains more.

Please do not leave collecting your prescription to the last moment incase we have to obtain a new script for you due to one of these shortages (usually takes a working day). We are now back to the standard five day turn around for prescriptions the majority of the time.

Thank you

Pharmacists say the cost to buy a box of aspirin from suppliers was 38p but is now around £7.

Today we reflect on the ultimate sacrifice made by members of our Armed Forces.

Their commitment to protecting and serving our communities will forever be remembered with gratitude, and their legacy of courage continues to inspire us all.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them 💙
