Community pharmacy
Tesco Instore Pharmacy is a community pharmacy located inside the Tesco store in Whitstable, Kent, CT5 3EE. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1033029 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. Being based inside a supermarket makes it a convenient stop for picking up prescriptions alongside your shopping. As with any community pharmacy, it is likely to handle dispensing, stock a range of over-the-counter products and offer basic health advice, though the exact range of services can vary. It is worth checking with the pharmacy directly to confirm what is available. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. Something worth knowing if you have a condition that has not responded well to standard treatments: medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK since 2018 for certain conditions, but this happens through specialist clinics rather than high street pharmacies.
