Penshaw Pharmacy

Community pharmacy
36 Avondale Avenue, Penshaw, Houghton le Spring, DH4 7QS 0191 5840600 sunderlandtravelclinic.com/ pharmacy.fww04@nhs.net
Penshaw Pharmacy is a GPhC-registered community pharmacy located in Houghton le Spring, Tyne and Wear, DH4 7QS. It holds General Pharmaceutical Council registration number 1115607. No GPhC inspection result has been published for this pharmacy at present. As a community pharmacy, it is likely to handle dispensing prescriptions, stocking over-the-counter medicines and providing basic health guidance to local patients. That said, the range of services can differ between pharmacies, so contacting Penshaw Pharmacy directly is the sensible way to confirm what is available. Phone and opening hour details are shown further down this page. It is worth being aware that, since 2018, medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK for certain conditions. This happens through specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
