Did you know that the Common Ailment Scheme exists?

In Wales, we offer a free scheme where you can get advice and treatment for minor health issues from a pharmacist, by-passing the need for a GP appointment.

Q: How does it work?
1. Visit out pharmacy
2. Have a confidential chat with the pharmacist about your symptoms
3. The pharmacist provides advice, recommends self-care, or provides free medication for covered conditions
4. If your condition is too serious, the pharmacist will refer you to your GP or A&E.

Q: Who can use it?
A: Anyone registered with a GP
