Community pharmacy
This Boots serves the North Shields area as a community pharmacy, registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1037618. It passed its most recent GPhC inspection. As part of the Boots chain, this branch handles NHS and private prescriptions, stocks a range of over-the-counter medicines, and provides general health advice to customers. The exact services available can differ between branches, so it is sensible to check with this store directly before visiting. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been lawful for doctors in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
