Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are usually caused by bacteria from poo entering the urinary tract. The bacteria enter through the tube that carries pee out of the body (urethra). Women have a shorter urethra than men. This means bacteria are more likely to reach the bladder or kidneys and cause an infection.
UTI Relief: Eliminate bacterial infections and discomfort.

About Pharmacy First Scotland

The Pharmacy First Scotland Service is an accessible service for all, where you can receive support, advice and if necessary, medication to support you with common conditions.
How Do I Access the Service?
Anyone registered with a GP in Scotland or residing in Scotland is eligible to use this service.

Simply visit our pharmacy.

There is no need to book an appointment but if you have a fever or are experiencing any other COVID related symptoms, please call ahead to speak to a member of the Pharmacy Team before visiting us in person.

What to expect?
  • Information Request: The pharmacist will ask for your name, date of birth, and postcode to record the consultation.
  • Consultation: Discuss your symptoms with the team.
  • Advice and Treatment: Receive expert advice and, if necessary, medication.
  • Referral: If more specialised care is needed, our team may refer you to another healthcare professional, such as your GP.
  • Privacy: If you prefer privacy, you can request to use the consultation area or room.

What Conditions are Covered?
Our teams can offer advice and treatment using over-the-counter medications for a variety of common conditions including constipation, diarrhoea, head lice, haemorrhoids, mouth ulcers, threadworms, warts, dry eyes, ear wax removal, eczema, as well as pain relief and anti-inflammatory medications for various conditions.

If you think you have one of these conditions, you can have a private consultation with one of our pharmacists. They can support you with advice tailored to your needs and suggest treatments to help manage your symptoms.

If you want a specific medicine or product, you may need to purchase it.

Additionally, all pharmacies can provide some prescription medications for urinary tract infections, some skin infections (including insect bites), hay fever, shingles, and impetigo, following a consultation with a pharmacist.
