Howitts Chemist
Community pharmacy
Howitts Chemist is a community pharmacy serving the Kettering area, Northamptonshire, NN14 2QS. The pharmacy is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1035420 and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. Community pharmacies of this kind typically handle prescription dispensing, provide over-the-counter medicines and offer basic health advice to patients. That said, the exact range of services differs between pharmacies, so contacting Howitts Chemist directly before visiting is the sensible approach. Opening hours and contact details are available further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been lawful for doctors in the UK to prescribe medical cannabis for certain conditions. This happens through specialist clinics, not through ordinary high street pharmacies.
