The NHS New Medicine Service gives you structured pharmacist support during the first four weeks of a new long-term medicine, when most questions and side effects arise.
Free NHS support during the first four weeks of a new long-term medicine.
Most problems with new medicines appear in the first few weeks. We are with you through each one.
The NHS updates the list of covered conditions from time to time. If your medicine is not listed, ask our pharmacist whether you qualify.
Evidence from NHS England shows that the New Medicine Service improves adherence and helps patients feel more confident. Small practical tips — like using a reminder app or taking tablets with food — can make a big difference.
If needed, we liaise directly with your GP so you do not have to repeat your story. Your consultation takes place in our private room and your data is handled in line with GPhC guidance.
