Over the Counter Medication

BACK

Malthouse Surgery has now adopted NHS England advice to GPs and other clinicians not to give a prescription for the treatment of common conditions, as specified by the NHS. 

  • This guidance applies even if a patient is eligible to free prescriptions.
  • If at any time you are concerned about your condition you should contact the local pharmacist or the surgery for more advice.
