Medicine Use Review Service.

Taking prescribed medicines in the right way is obviously important to your health.  Our Medicines Use Review service is a FREE service that helps you to find out more about the medicines you are taking and the effect of taking more than one type of drug at the same time.

Book yourself in for a Medicine Use Review

The way you take prescribed medicines can make a big difference to how effective they are. It’s easy to make mistakes without even realising it. Understanding how and when to take your medicines, and how to control any side effects, is so important to your general well-being.

Research shows that around half of us may not be taking prescribed medicines properly. Our Medicine Use Review is a good idea for all of us, but is especially important if:

• You don’t know how and when to take your medicines
• You’re not sure what your medicines do
• Your symptoms aren’t under control
• You have side effects
• You find it hard to remember when to take your medicines
• You find it difficult to take or swallow your medicines

How can I arrange a Medicine Use Review?

You can arrange to call in at a time that's convenient for you. For the most effective results, you'll need to have been collecting your prescriptions from Prestbury Village Pharmacy for the last three months.

Don't forget, even if you don’t get your medicines from us on a regular basis, our Pharmacist is always on hand to answer your questions and make sure you're getting the most from your medicines.

Privacy.

All Medicine Use reviews are carried out in our private consultation room with the Pharmacust to ensure privacy at all times. You are entltled to bring a chaperone with you for any consultation.
