Community pharmacy
Tesco Instore Pharmacy serves the local community in Folkestone, Kent, CT19 4QJ. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1105411 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection, which is reassuring if you want to know the basics are in order. Being based inside a Tesco store makes it a convenient stop for many people picking up prescriptions or over-the-counter medicines alongside their shopping. General health advice is another thing community pharmacies typically provide, though the range of services on offer can differ, so it is a good idea to check directly before relying on any specific service. Opening hours and contact details are shown further down this page. It is worth knowing that, since 2018, medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK for certain conditions, though this happens through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
