Primary care services
We have worked with the Scottish Government Health Directorates to produce a series of leaflets to explain changes that are happening to primary care services.
-
The Minor Ailment Service at your local pharmacy
The Minor Ailment Service leaflet describes an NHS service for children, people aged 60 or over, people who hold a medical exemption certificate and people on certain benefits. If this applies to you, you can get medicines or treatments for a minor illness or complaint free of charge from your pharmacist without a prescription from your GP.
