Dr Nicola Decker, Clinical Leader for NHS Hampshire, Southampton and Isle of Wight Clinical Commissioning Group, said: “Your local pharmacies are an invaluable resource and important part of the NHS care offer.

“They provide expert advice about over-the-counter medicines to treat common health conditions - as well as advice on medication and a range of other services.

“Pharmacists are trained to advise you whether you need to see a GP, nurse or other healthcare professional and can also provide health and wellbeing advice.”
