  1. Review titled Utterly unacceptable

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Iain - Posted on 13 February 2024

    My partner has had an extravasation during chemotherapy treatment via portocath. She has cancer and after going to A&E for acute pain she was given a prescription for morphine. She was prescribed a large dose due to the effects it had in her chest... I was told by someone who couldn't have been more than 22 that the A&E doctors prescription was spurious. The prescription said 10ml every 4 hours. I understand that it must have been 10ml 4 times a day... I was told to try and find the doctor who prescribed it. How can we possibly do that?

  2. Review titled Could be easier for people

    Staff in the pharmacy very helpful and friendly. Issue is opening times - very restrictive for those who work full time. Even one 8am start and one 6pm close a week would be very helpful. Also no communication if issue with your prescription - if unable to get a medication you only find out when you go to collect, very difficult if working full time and have to sort another time to attend again. Also I had to sort a different script with GP ie different strength of tablet. I am aware that some pharmacies in Durham text people when script ready to collect which would be fantastic.
