Get Help When You Need It
At our clinic, we understand the importance of convenience and access to quality medical care. That’s why we provide a range of medications designed to meet your various needs.
GORD/Reflux
Rabeprazole/Esomeprazole/Lansoprazole (Ages 18+)
Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a medical condition that occurs when stomach acid flows back up into the oesophagus. It can cause discomfort and other unpleasant symptoms such as heartburn and regurgitation to occur.
We can prescribe medication to assist in short term treatment of reflux symptoms. Common medications used for this include antacids which work by neutralising excess acids in your stomach.
Back Pain
Naproxen 250mg (Ages 18 to 65)
Lower back pain can be very uncomfortable and potentially debilitating. In most cases, it ranges in severity from mild to a moderate level; depending on posture and movement, the intensity of the discomfort may fluctuate. Fortunately, we are able to offer medication to aid in managing the pain.
Facial Hair Removal
Vaniqa 11.5% Cream (Ages 19+)
Facial hair removal is an issue that can cause significant stress and anxiety for many people, particularly women. Facial hair removal medication has the potential to improve the psychological wellbeing of people who struggle with excessive hair growth e.g. due to PCOS, by reducing the amount of facial hair they have, comfortably, from the privacy of their own homes.
Haemorrhoids
Cinchocaine & hydrocortisone containing suppositories and ointments
Haemorrhoids, also known as piles, are common issues affecting many people around the world. They are swollen veins situated in or around the back passage that can cause a range of unpleasant symptoms such as intense itching, pain, bright red blood after passing faeces and problematic bowel movements. Haemorrhoids can be quite painful and uncomfortable to live with, but there are a variety of treatments available to help manage them.
Male Hair Loss
Finasteride Tablets (Ages 18+)
Hair loss, more accurately known as male pattern baldness or androgenic alopecia, can be a difficult thing to grapple with. Luckily, there is medication available to help to increase hair growth and prevent further hair loss in men with androgenic alopecia. Our pharmacists can prescribe medication without the need for a referral from your doctor.
IBS
Buscopan Tablets (Ages 6+)
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that causes stomach pain or discomfort which can lead to additional symptoms such as bloating, gas, diarrhoea and constipation. Along with lifestyle changes like exercise and reducing stress levels, there are medications we can provide to aid in symptom relief. These medications help reduce stomach spasms from both the genito-urinary tract as well as from the gastrointestinal tract.
Nausea
Metoclopramide Tablets (Ages 18 to 65)
This medication is an effective treatment for nausea and vomiting when those symptoms have been induced by a migraine. Some migraine medications can also cause side effects of vomiting and nausea. Metoclopramide can reduce the severity of this symptom while still allowing the potentially beneficial effects of taking these types of medications.
Salbutamol Inhalers
Salamol/Ventolin/Airomir Inhalers (Ages 16+)
We understand the importance of having a reliable inhaler at-the-ready for asthma sufferers. It can be devastating to have your inhaler lost, damaged, or simply empty, without being able to get in contact with your prescriber for another prescription. We can supply another inhaler for you if you have had a salbutamol inhaler prescribed in the last year.
Urinary Incontinence
Speak to a pharmacist for suitable medication
Urinary incontinence is an uncomfortable symptom for adults who have overactive bladder syndrome, a condition where frequent and urgent need to urinate is experienced. The condition can present itself by a difficulty to completely empty the bladder, urinary urgency, lack of control over when the urge to urinate occurs, and voiding small amounts that continue despite one’s attempt to control them. Fortunately, there are treatments that we can provide which will help to reduce the distress associated with these symptoms.
Suffering From Hayfever?
Hay fever is a common condition that affects millions of people each year. Also known as allergic rhinitis, this condition results from an allergy to something like pollen, dust or mould which then irritates your nose, causing cold-like symptoms. These symptoms can range from sneezing and a runny or blocked nose all the way to intense itchiness and headaches. Fortunately, there are medications available to relieve these symptoms, enabling hay fever sufferers to enjoy the warmer months without misery.
