Community pharmacy
Preston's Ribbleton area is served by Ribbleton Pharmacy, a community pharmacy registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1033850. It passed its most recent GPhC inspection and is owned by Whittle Pharmacies Limited. Community pharmacies like this one are a familiar part of neighbourhood life, handling prescription medicines, stocking everyday health products and offering general guidance when people need it. The range of services can differ between pharmacies, so it is worth getting in touch directly or checking before you visit. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. For anyone dealing with a long-term condition where standard treatments have fallen short, it may be useful to know that medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK since 2018 for certain conditions, via specialist clinics rather than ordinary pharmacies.
