What services can we provide?

​

As of 3rd June 2024, it is no longer legal for any UK pharmacy to dispense certain gender blocking medicines (GnRH agonists such as Leuprolide, goserelin, triptorelin, nafarelin and histrelin) to anyone under 18 years of age. Please read this guidance :  Click Here

​

To receive medicines from us, you must have a prescription valid to be dispensed in the UK. For EEA prescriptions, the government guidelines for pharmacies may be found here : https://www.gov.uk/guidance/prescriptions-issued-in-the-eea-and-switzerland-guidance-for-pharmacists#eel-decline

 

Every prescription dispensed by our pharmacy must undergo a clinical check to ensure it is suitable and safe for patient use.

​

We cannot provide this treatment to individuals residing outside of the UK.

​

Olympia Pharmacy reserves the right to provide this service to anyone and may refuse without providing a reason. If service is refused to you, you may be signposted to another service provider or referred back to your prescriber.
