Blister Packs

prescriptionFor patients that need help managing their medicines, we offer a free blister packing service.

Blister packing of medicines eliminates the confusion that can be associated with complicated regimens. Medicines are arranged in weekly blister packs, and the tablets are separated into compartments based on day of the week and time of day.

This service helps people who are taking multiple medicines or those who worry about missing a dose. Carers can also find this service very useful.

Having your medication blister-packed may be the answer. Just talk to our Pharmacist and it can be organised for you.

We are offering a Prescription Collection Service from all local Doctors’ surgeries, where your Doctor agrees. If you have regular prescriptions why not ask our pharmacy to collect the prescriptions for you?

We will prepare the prescriptions and have it ready for collection when it most suits you. Simply order the prescription in the normal way, then contact the pharmacy and we will arrange the collections and tell you when your medication will be ready.

Please note most surgeries require 48 hours notice for repeat prescriptions

Cardiovascular disease is the biggest cause of death in Ireland. For many people heart disease and stroke can be delayed or even prevented. Healthy eating, being physically active and not smoking can all help to reduce your chances of heart disease. One of the best ways to prevent heart disease and stroke is to keep your cholesterol at a healthy level.
