Boots
Community pharmacy
In the town centre of South Shields, NE33 1DA, Boots operates a community pharmacy registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1037650. No GPhC inspection result is currently published for this branch. As a well-known high street chain, Boots pharmacies generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a wide range of over-the-counter medicines, and provide basic health advice to customers. What each individual branch offers can differ, so it is sensible to check directly before visiting. Contact details and opening times for this branch are listed further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been lawful for doctors in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions, though this happens through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
