Community pharmacy
Gateshead has a Boots community pharmacy at NE8 1BF, registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1120265. Boots is a familiar name on the high street across the UK, and this branch is there to help with everyday health needs. That typically means dispensing prescriptions, stocking a good range of over-the-counter medicines and offering general health advice to local people. That said, what each branch provides can differ, so it is worth a quick call or check online before you make a special trip. Contact details and opening hours for this branch are further down the page. It is also useful to know that since 2018 it has been legal in the UK for specialist clinics to prescribe certain controlled medicines for eligible patients.
