Wards Chemist Ltd

Community pharmacy
49 Coopers Road, Handsworth Wood, Birmingham, B20 2JU 0121 5540715 wardschemist.net/
Wards Chemist Ltd serves its local community in Birmingham, B20 2JU, as a registered community pharmacy. The General Pharmaceutical Council holds it under registration number 1037945, and it passed its most recent GPhC inspection. Community pharmacies of this kind generally handle NHS and private prescriptions, stock a range of over-the-counter products and provide routine health advice to local residents. The exact services available at any given pharmacy can differ, so contacting Wards Chemist directly is the most reliable way to confirm what is on offer. Opening hours and contact details appear further down this page. It is worth knowing that since 2018 it has been lawful for specialist clinicians in the UK to prescribe cannabis-based medicines for certain conditions. This is done through dedicated specialist clinics, not through community pharmacies.
