We can accept your unwanted medicines for disposal. Please take them to Crossflatts Pharmacy where our staff will ensure they are disposed of safely.

We operate Surgery accounts and can deliver your requests. Our pharmacists are available and approachable for any prescribing advice. We can help with co-ordinating dosette boxes and other compliance aids by liaising closely with nurses and doctors. Dressings can be delivered to the patients address or back to the surgery.

Some surgeries have started to use electronic prescribing, where the GP is be able to transmit prescriptions electronically to your local pharmacies. This will mean that you no longer have to visit your GP to request your repeat prescription, your prescription will be transmitted directly to the pharmacy and dispensed ready for you to collect. Crossflatts Pharmacy have adopted this approach and are working in cooperation with the GP surgeries that have gone LIVE with the electronic method.

We are available to answer any queries you have concerning your medication and can tell you which counter medicines are safe to take with your medication. Pharmacists are also trained in recognising symptoms of disease and where appropriate, recommending either treatment or referral to your doctor. Our pharmacy staff are also trained to give you advice on counter medicines. At Crossflatts Pharmacy, we offer a service by which you can ask a pharmacist questions about your medication or condition which will be answered in total confidence.

This free service involves a face to face discussion between the customer and pharmacist to give a better understanding of why medicines have been prescribed, and the best way to take them. Advice can be given on side effects or other problems relating to medicines. Note that this review differs from that done via the GP. The GP will assess and change medicines, and the pharmacist will discuss the best ways to take them.
