Trusted NHS information

Medicines and health information.

Use reliable NHS guidance to understand medicines, symptoms, conditions and treatment options.

NHS A-Z guides

Clear guidance, written for patients.

Search the NHS medicines guide for dosage information, common side effects and interactions, or browse Health A to Z for information about conditions, symptoms and treatments.

If the NHS guides do not answer your question, contact Beckside Pharmacy or your GP surgery. Do not stop prescribed medicine without appropriate clinical advice.
