Pontesbury Pharmacy
Community pharmacy
Pontesbury Pharmacy serves the local community in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY5 0RR. It is registered with the General Pharmaceutical Council under number 1036044 and is owned by Lunts Pharmacies Ltd. The pharmacy passed its most recent GPhC inspection, which is a reassuring sign for anyone using it. As a community pharmacy, it handles the kinds of things you would generally expect, such as dispensing prescriptions, stocking over-the-counter medicines and providing basic health guidance. Services do vary between pharmacies, so it is a good idea to get in touch directly if you have a specific query. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. It is also worth knowing that, since 2018, medical cannabis has been legal to prescribe in the UK for certain conditions. This happens through specialist clinics rather than community pharmacies.
