Pharmacy2U is the UK’s largest online pharmacy

Founded by pharmacists in 1999, our organisation helped to kickstart the digital healthcare transformation in England after being awarded the NHS pilot for an Electronic Prescription Service in 2001.

What makes Pharmacy2U different?

Our services can benefit many different people in the community, including those with reduced mobility or limited access to traditional pharmacies. 

We can also support people with busy lifestyles who don’t have time to make regular trips to the pharmacy.

By providing NHS services such as the New Medicine Service and the Pharmacy Contraception Service remotely, we aim to support frontline healthcare provision by reducing pressure on GPs.
