F C Whelan Chemists

Community pharmacy
A community pharmacy serving Workington, Cumbria, F C Whelan Chemists is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1088973. No GPhC inspection result has been published for this branch. The pharmacy is owned by Sri Arya Healthcare Ltd. Community pharmacies of this type generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a range of over-the-counter medicines and can offer basic health advice, though what is available at any individual branch can differ. It is always sensible to ring ahead or check directly if you need a particular product or service. Contact details and opening hours are listed further down this page. Something worth knowing if you are dealing with a long-term health condition: since 2018 it has been lawful for specialist clinicians in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This does not happen through ordinary pharmacies.
