Pharmacy Contraception Service

We provide the new NHS service which allows you to get repeats of your oral contraceptives from the Pharmacy.

​

The NHS have introduced a new service which will allow you to obtain repeats of your regular oral contraception from the pharmacy without the need to obtain a prescription from your GP.

Additionally, as we are part of the NHS pilot programme for this service, we can also initiate or change contraception pills as well as provide service to patients already receiving prescriptions for oral contraception from their GP.

FAQs on Pharmacy Contraception Service

​

 How do I access the service?

Come to the pharmacy or call us on 0207 6258582 for Kilburn Branch and 0208 9521260 for Stanmore Branch to arrange a convenient time to complete a consultation with our pharmacist.

​

Which forms of contraception can you supply?

We can provide any oral contraceptive tablet that is currently available on NHS prescription.

​

 What does the consultation with the pharmacist involve?

We will run through a general health screening questionnaire and in the case of a combined contraceptive tablet (estrogen and progesterone), we are also required to perform a blood pressure check and also ensure your BMI is with an acceptable range. If you don't know your weight or BMI, we will calculate this for you.

Absolutely. Supply is free of charge in the same way all contraception is free of charge when supplied by the NHS.
