People who are exempt from prescription charges can be treated without incurring any costs for medication provided – we do however ask you to provide normal proof of exemption.

If you are not exempt you will only be asked to pay the retail price of the medication you receive. We do not charge you for the consultation and not all consultations will result in a prescription.

Whilst in most cases the treatment recommended by our Pharmacist will cure your condition it is important that if your symptoms persist you seek further advice from the Pharmacist or GP. If you choose to visit your GP always let the Doctor know you have been to Jedburgh Pharmacy and what medication you have been taking.
