Oral Contraception Service

Previously in order to access oral contraceptives you would need to go and see your GP and have the tablet prescribed on a prescription. You would also need to attend follow up appointments to have a ‘Pill Check’ which are not always at a convenient time.

You are now able to access your first or next supply of oral contraception from Allestree Pharmacy. In order to make the process efficient for you we have devised an easy and convenient system.

You start by booking a telephone appointment with our pharmacist at a time convenient to you. During this short appointment the pharmacist registers you and takes some details to ensure any supply is safe.

At times we might ask for information which you are not able to provide such as blood pressure and weight. You can then either send this information after the phone consultation or pop into the pharmacy
and have the measurements taken.

Once all the information is recorded the pharmacist will confirm the supply and your tablets can be either posted, delivered or collected from the pharmacy.

The best part of it all is that the whole service is completely free of charge. Book your appointment now by clicking on the button below or ringing the pharmacy. If you book online please ensure you leave your phone number so that the pharmacist can contact you.
