Boustead Pharmacy
At Boustead Chemist, we're entirely devoted to putting your health and wellbeing first. As our independent pharmacy is based in the heart of the community, our store is within easy reach and guarantees a responsive service centred on each individual customer. With a full range of pharmaceutical services, we offer choice, quality, advice and care.

What's more, we boast private consultation rooms where you can confidently discuss your concerns with our staff, without fear of being overheard. We'd be delighted to demonstrate just how much we care. If you're a seasonal sufferer of the sniffles then you know exactly how irritating and uncomfortable it can get.
Services
We've been serving and protecting the health of our community for over 20 years now, and we genuinely have a passion for what we do. Nothing means more to us than the wellbeing of our neighbourhood, and we're honoured to be so many people's first choice when it comes prescriptions, over-the-counter medicines, vaccinations, and treatments.
We're proud to boast expert staff members and market-leading medicines, so you're in safe hands. At Boustead Chemist, we're well-equipped to treat a vast range of illnesses and concerns. From over-the-counter remedies because you're feeling under the weather - i.e. cough syrup or pain relief - to products that may relieve aesthetic issues, such as female facial hair, put your faith in us.
We have you covered so that your allergies don't get in the way of your day, regardless of what it is that you suffer with. From food allergies or hay fever, we can help with our range of allergy tablets and relief. If you're experiencing the symptoms of seasonal hay fever, you may be looking for a hay fever treatment to help reduce and alleviate the stress.
Acne is very common in teenagers and younger adults - in fact, around 95% of people aged 11 to 30 are affected by acne to some extent. It's nothing to be embarrassed about, but we understand why you might want to get rid. From top to toe, keeping your skin healthy and finding treatments that can alleviate any discomfort will help you to feel your best and boost your confidence.
Losing your hair can be upsetting, as we understand that the hair we have on our head is quite often a huge part of our personal identity. While it's important to remember that hair loss can be completely normal, in some cases it can be a sign of a medical condition that needs professional attention.

I have excellent service from this chemist for over 50 years. I have been on repeat prescription most of my life. A few years ago I was prescribed a drug by my own gp and when the pharmacist read the prescription, he rang my GP because he was aware that it reacted with my other medication and he got the prescription changed to one that wouldn't. The doctor had all of my notes in front of him but he hadn't! Had it not been for their diligence I would have been taking something that would be detrimental to my overall health.

Currently over charging and making a profit from the corona crisis. Terrible immoral behaviour.

***** First visit today. Script filled without issue, I usually have trouble getting everything in one visit at other places. Very friendly professional service. I’ll definitely be making this chemist my regular. Thank you Julie Muir for page invite too.

Small inside, but great, knowledgeable staff.
Despite not getting to the pharmacy until about 5 minutes before closing and some confusion regarding my prescription, they still stayed open while I nipped over the road to pick up the prescription from Albert Road Surgery.
They also can electronically receive prescriptions from the Albert Road Surgery which is pretty cool.

Bousted's is my family's go to pharmacy. We all have repeat prescriptions and the staff know us well. If you are looking for a chemist like Boots, this is not your shop. It's a serious pharmacy and you won't find a vast range of make up or bathing products. You will get expert advice from friendly staff.
One of the most fantastic thing about Boustead's is the antique shop fittings which still have the old labels of specific chemicals. It makes most new customers say, 'Wow.'
