Tesco Instore Pharmacy

Open late Open Sundays Community pharmacy
Tesco Instore Pharmacy is a GPhC-registered community pharmacy located in Wells, Somerset, BA5 2DZ. It holds registration number 1036381 with the General Pharmaceutical Council and passed its most recent GPhC inspection. The pharmacy sits within a Tesco store and is operated by Tesco Stores Ltd. Community pharmacies of this type generally handle prescription dispensing, stock a range of over-the-counter medicines, and can offer routine health advice. That said, services differ from one branch to another, so it is sensible to confirm what is available by contacting the pharmacy directly before visiting. Opening hours and contact details are listed further down this page. On a separate note, since November 2018 specialist clinicians in the UK have been able to legally prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This happens through dedicated specialist services rather than standard community pharmacies.
