We need your help to reduce medicine waste in our area. We are asking patients who order repeat prescriptions to:

Only order what you need:
Check what medicines you have at home before you order, and only request the medicines you need this time. You will still be able to order others again in future.

Check your prescription bag straight away:
Check that you only have what you need before you leave the pharmacy, and that there’s nothing extra in there.

Let us know if your medicines are no longer right for you:
Talk to your pharmacy team or attend/request medication reviews to make sure medicines are optimised for you.

Take your medicines into hospital:
Keep a current list of your medicines on your NHS App, and take all your medicines in with you.

Dispose of medicines safely:
Return any unused or out of date medicines or inhalers to your pharmacy for safe disposal

NHS Cheshire and Merseyside is holding a public consultation on a proposal to stop making gluten free bread and bread mixes available on prescription.
Gluten free bread and bread mixes are sometimes prescribed to individuals who live with coeliac disease, or other diagnosed conditions which mean that people have to follow a gluten free diet.
The public consultation is a chance for people to find out more about the proposal and share their views. It takes place between 28 January and 11 March 2025. The feedback received will be used to make a final decision about the proposal.
Further details about the public consultation, and how to share your views, are available on the NHS Cheshire and Merseyside website

Illnesses like coughs, sore throats and ear ache are extremely common in young children, but did you know… our children’s ‘super bodies’ are designed to fight off many common illnesses, without the need for antibiotics?

Antibiotics rarely speed up recovery for these conditions and have no effect on viruses.

Take a look at the usual recovery times for coughs, sore throats, and ear ache:
