ZOOM Pharmacy

This service is designed for people with long-term illnesses who may need support with their medicines. An assessment is used to identify the things that affect their ability to take medication as prescribed. Pharmacists work together with the patient to address each issue. The pharmacist is able to assist you with managing your medications and can coordinate your medications so that your prescription repeats happen all at the same time and therefore require only one trip to have your prescriptions refilled. They can also provide you with a reminder service (via text message, email or phone call) to let you know when your next supply of medications is ready for collection. If you are having difficulties managing your medicines (e.g. forgetting to take them), please ask your pharmacist whether this service is right for you.

This pharmacy has been registered to dispense Maviret (glecaprevir and pibrentasvir) for the treatment of Hep C and to provide you with counselling to support your treatment. You will not have to pay any pharmacy charges for your Maviret.

ZOOM Sachet Packs have been designed to make it as easy as possible to take your medicines correctly. Our eco-friendly sachet packs sort all your medicines into easy to take doses.

Each individual sachet is clearly labelled with your name, the medicines inside – and the date, day of the week, and time of the day to take it. So you always know you are taking the right pills, at the right time, each day.

Your sachet packs come in a long roll, loaded into a dispenser box and come out in the order that you need to take them. 

If you require reports on your medicines or the cost of your medicines please ask a member of the pharmacy team.

This pharmacy can repack your medicines into compliance packaging (blister packs or sachet rolls) that specifies when you should take them. These can be supplied as weekly or monthly packs depending on your needs. This type of packaging can help you to take your medicine at the right time. It can also make it easier to see if you have missed a dose or are running out. It is useful if you are travelling as it avoids having to take multiple containers.
