Community pharmacy
Karsons Pharma is a GPhC-registered community pharmacy located in Rochester, Kent, ME1 2BA. Its General Pharmaceutical Council registration number is 1090819. No inspection result has been published for this pharmacy at the time of writing. As a community pharmacy, Karsons Pharma will typically handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock over-the-counter medicines and provide basic health guidance to local patients. That said, services do differ between pharmacies, so it is sensible to contact them directly before making a trip. Phone number and opening hours are listed further down this page. It is also worth knowing that since 2018 it has been legal for certain conditions to be treated with prescribed medical cannabis in the UK. This happens through specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
