Witton Pharmacy

Community pharmacy
Serving the Witton area of Blackburn, BB2 2SS, Witton Pharmacy is a community pharmacy registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 9012269. It is operated by Shifa Healthcare Ltd and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. Community pharmacies of this kind typically handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock over-the-counter medicines and provide basic health guidance to local patients. The range of services on offer can differ between pharmacies, so contacting Witton Pharmacy directly is the best way to confirm what is available. Phone numbers and opening times are listed further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018, specialist clinicians in the UK have been able to legally prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This is done through specialist services rather than community pharmacies.
