Merlin Pharmacy
Community pharmacy
Merlin Pharmacy serves the local community in Chatham, Kent, ME5 0QX. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1032677 and is owned by Merlin Silverweed Ltd. The pharmacy passed its most recent GPhC inspection. As a community pharmacy, it handles prescriptions and stocks over-the-counter medicines, along with general health advice. The range of services on offer can differ between pharmacies, so it is sensible to contact Merlin Pharmacy directly before visiting to confirm what is available. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been legal for specialist clinicians in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through dedicated specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
