Free Treatment for Minor Ailments
The Minor Ailment Service gives patients treatment quickly, without waiting for a GP appointment, and frees up more GP time to see patients with illnesses like diabetes, heart disease, etc. The pharmacist can give write free prescriptions for people who do not pay for their prescriptions for “Minor Ailments”.
The most common minor ailments we treat at Aberlour Pharmacy are:
- Pain (sore joints, tooth ache, sinus pain, etc.)
- Constipation
- Diarrhoea
- Teething pain
- Nappy Rash
- Head lice
- Threadworm
- Colds, flu and sore throats
- Hayfever and allergies
- Conjuntivitis
- Eczema and dry skin
The private consultation room is always available. The pharmacist also has access to records of prescriptions you have dispensed here at Aberlour Pharmacy. This means that the treatment they recommend for you will be safe with the medicines the Doctor has prescribed, but also tells the pharmacist about the illnesses you are being treated for. For example, decongestants are not suitable for people being treated for high blood pressure.
