Costigan's Pharmacy Costigan's Pharmacy is a family-run business established in 1954 on Main Street Tipperary Town

31/03/2025

Important Announcement
After more than 70 years, Costigan's pharmacy has been sold to a new generation of pharmacists.
We started in 1954 when my Mam and Dad, Nance and Bob Costigan bought Darcy's pharmacy and we grew up over the shop.In 1995 my husband John and our children moved back from England and I took over the original pharmacy at 52 Main street. In 2006 we opened what we thought would be a quiet second pharmacy in Unit 3 Kyle Court in Blind street. In 2018 we built the new Kylecourt Clinic and we moved the pharmacy from Unit 3 into the bigger Unit 4. In 2020, just as the pandemic hit we merged the Main street pharmacy with the Blind street pharmacy and got the whole team under one roof.
So for me it has been a lifetime of pharmacy and just short of thirty years running the business.None of it would have been possible without my husband John holding the fort at home and all the people who have worked with me over the years. And definitely none of it would have been possible without the people of Tipp town and surrounds - what an amazing community.The powers-that-be have neglected and strangled the town but here we all are , still achieving.
I hope I get an opportunity to meet most of our patients and carers in the pharmacy over the next few weeks and to say thank you. I'm very glad that the new owners are not a chain, they are a pharmacist couple, John Kennedy and Lynsay Moore.I know that with their younger and fresher eyes they will see many new ways to continue our legacy.
Thank you to my family, to the fantastic people of the area, and always remembering the loved ones we have lost. Finally, a huge thank you to the hardest working team you could meet.

UPDATE: When you read all the comments below you realise that 99.99% of the people of Tipp town are amazing.
As an older lady commented to me years ago after the Patrick's Day attacks - she said " they have the time and the money and in my day we had neither".
-----------------------------------------
We have had a really busy bank holiday week, the whole team have worked so hard to make sure everyone gets their medication on time.
I stayed late tonight to catch up, left work at half 9 and completely forgot about Halloween. Got my windscreen smashed on the way home. The sound of the bang was unreal. Well done the brave lads hiding in the bushes throwing rocks and anything else they can find. And well done the parents who must know their darlings are up to no good. And well done the people watching. Many of you will rock up tomorrow expecting business as usual in our pharmacy. And it will be business as usual because that's our job but it won't be easy.

Actually the only well done is for the two kind ladies who helped me, you know who you are, I really appreciated it.
