Blocked nose, facial pressure, or sinus pain? We can assess and provide appropriate medication, including prescription-strength nasal sprays or antibiotics if needed.

If your throat is red, painful, or won’t clear up, our pharmacists can perform a clinical assessment and supply antibiotics where suitable.

We can check for ear pain, discharge, or hearing loss and offer treatment or antibiotics when appropriate.
