Health Centre Pharmacy - Mosgiel

Welcome to Health Centre Pharmacy - Mosgiel, located at 23 Inglis Street, Mosgiel, New Zealand. We are a trusted drugstore and health establishment, offering a wide range of services to support your wellbeing.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are proud to offer COVID-19 testing, vaccination, and antiviral medicine without the need for a prescription. Your health and safety are our top priorities, and our trained pharmacists are here to provide guidance and support during these challenging times.

At Health Centre Pharmacy, our pharmacists are dedicated to supporting the health of your entire family. Whether you need advice or treatment for common minor illnesses, our knowledgeable staff can provide the care you need. We ensure that prescriptions are dispensed accurately, and our pharmacists will explain the purpose, dosage, and potential side effects of your medications. You can trust us to help you make the most of your medicines and achieve optimal health outcomes.

Confidentiality and professionalism are at the core of our services, and most of them are offered free of charge, without requiring an appointment. We also provide a safe disposal service for expired or unwanted medicines, as well as needles/lancets and syringes, at no cost to you.

Please note that we are closed on public holidays, including King's Birthday, Labour Day, Waitangi Day, Otago Anniversary, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, Easter Monday, and ANZAC Day.

For individuals with long-term illnesses, our medication management service is designed to provide comprehensive support. Through assessments, our pharmacists identify factors that may affect your ability to take medication as prescribed, and work with you to address each issue. We can coordinate your prescriptions to minimize trips to the pharmacy and offer reminder services to ensure you never miss a refill.

Health Centre Pharmacy is also committed to helping you quit smoking. Our trained staff can provide advice and support aids, such as nicotine gum, to assist you on your journey to becoming smoke-free.

If you require compliance packaging for your medications, we offer blister packs or sachet rolls that clearly indicate when to take each dose. This packaging simplifies medication management, especially when traveling, and helps you avoid missed doses.

Our pharmacists are trained to assess the appropriateness of emergency contraception (ECP) in a confidential manner. If you require the ECP, please consult with our staff as soon as possible after unprotected intercourse, as it is most effective when taken promptly.

As responsible stewards of the environment, we encourage the return of expired or unwanted medicines, as well as needles/lancets and syringes, to our pharmacy. This service is free and helps protect our community and environment from the harm caused by improper disposal.

For men aged 35-70 experiencing erectile dysfunction, our specially trained pharmacists can prescribe sildenafil upon meeting specific assessment criteria.

Additionally, our trained pharmacists can supply the antibiotics nitrofurantoin or trimethoprim for urinary tract infections without a prescription to women between 16 and 65 years of age, who are not pregnant and have no complicating factors. Our pharmacists will conduct a consultation to ensure the medicine is appropriate and refer you to a GP if necessary.

If you require reports on your medicines or information regarding the cost, our pharmacy team is here to assist you.
