Smithsons Pharmacy

Community pharmacy
Smithsons Pharmacy is a GPhC-registered community pharmacy serving the local area in Preston, PR1 8DN. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1033814. Community pharmacies like this one tend to be a familiar and accessible part of neighbourhood health, helping people with their prescriptions, providing over-the-counter medicines and offering straightforward health advice when it is needed. That said, what is available can differ from one pharmacy to another, so it is always a good idea to get in touch with Smithsons directly before visiting. Contact details and opening hours are listed further down this page. It is also worth knowing that medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK since 2018 for certain conditions, though this is done through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
