Boots

Open late Community pharmacy
118 Military Road, Colchester, CO1 2AR 01206 792363 boots.com/
Right in the heart of Colchester, CO1 2AR, Boots is a well-known community pharmacy serving the local area. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1031117 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection, so you can feel confident it meets the required standards. As a large national chain, Boots branches typically handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a wide range of over-the-counter medicines and offer everyday health advice. That said, services can differ between stores, so it is always a good idea to phone ahead or check what this branch offers before making a trip. Contact details and opening hours are listed further down this page. It is also worth knowing that since 2018 it has been legal for specialist clinics in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions, though this happens through specialist routes rather than high street pharmacies.
