In many areas the scheme will cover common childhood remedies like calpol and sudocrem, if and when the need for them arises.
Torfaen has had a version of the scheme since 2006, and 19 of the 21 pharmacies across the borough are signed up. (Check whether your local pharmacy is HERE.) To do this, they have to have a specially trained pharmacist. If the accredited pharmacist is not in on the day you visit, they won't be able to give you the treatment, but should be able to signpost you to the nearest pharmacy that can. In other areas you need to register with your local pharmacy, while in Torfaen proof that you are registered with a surgery in the borough should suffice.
See the full leaflet from Torfaen Local Health Board HERE.
