Tesco Instore Pharmacy

Open late Open Sundays Community pharmacy
Sitting inside a Tesco supermarket, this community pharmacy brings everyday healthcare to shoppers in Reading, RG30 1AH. Tesco Instore Pharmacy is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1092976. Having a pharmacy within a busy supermarket makes it straightforward for local people to pick up prescriptions, grab over-the-counter medicines or ask a member of staff a quick health question while doing the weekly shop. What is available at any given branch can vary, so it is always sensible to confirm with the pharmacy directly before relying on a particular service. Contact details and opening hours are shown further down this page. It is also worth knowing that since 2018 specialist doctors in the UK have been able to legally prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through dedicated specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
