Asda Pharmacy

Leicester has a number of convenient pharmacy options, and Asda Pharmacy in LE4 8GN is one of them. Sitting within an Asda supermarket, it offers the practical advantage of combining your shopping with a pharmacy visit. The pharmacy is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1091842. Community pharmacies of this type generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a range of over-the-counter medicines and can point you toward general health advice. That said, what is available at any given branch can differ, so it is always a good idea to contact the pharmacy directly before making a trip. You will find its phone number and opening hours 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 happens through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
