Through the Wales Common Ailments Service, our pharmacists can assess your sore throat using a validated clinical tool and provide appropriate treatment, including antibiotics where clinically indicated.

Depending on assessment, we can supply antibiotics, advise on pain relief and hydration, or issue a delayed prescription to use if symptoms worsen.
