Hootons Pharmacy

Community pharmacy
A community pharmacy serving the Bolton area, Hootons Pharmacy is based in BL6 7AR, Lancashire. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1107705 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection, so you can feel confident it meets the standards required of registered pharmacies in Great Britain. Community pharmacies like Hootons typically help with dispensing prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines and everyday health queries. That said, what each pharmacy offers can differ, so it is always a good idea to get in touch or call ahead before your visit. Contact details and opening hours are shown further down this page. It is worth knowing that medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK since 2018 for certain conditions, though this happens through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
