Pharmacists (chemists) can provide advice and treatment for a wide variety of medical problems.

They can be particularly helpful for advice about colds, flu, sore throats, ear ache or coughs.

They can also advise on regular medication and ways to stop smoking.

Pharmacies can offer emergency contraception.

We are not trained to deal with dental problems. This includes toothaches, abscesses and problems experienced after dental treatment. We cannot provide antibiotics for dental problems as these need a full assessment first. 

We suggest patients register with and regularly attend a dentist for checkups and treatment. 

To see a dentist in an emergency or out of hours, call your dentist - if they're closed, their answerphone may tell you what to do.

If you do not have a dentist:

• Find a dentist near you
• Call 111 or get help from 111 online
