Using the right inhaler technique helps you breathe the medicine straight into your lungs, where it’s needed. You’re less likely to get side effects, because not much of the medicine is absorbed into the rest of your body, and you’re giving yourself the best chance of managing your symptoms. With a high number of patients not using the correct technique and therefore not receiving optimal treatment, it is worth making sure you are not one of those patients!
Want to check you’re using your inhaler properly? At Park Lane Pharmacy, our pharmacist or trained healthcare staff can check your inhaler technique with no appointment needed.
Keeping an accurate idea of your blood glucose levels is an integral part of successful diabetes management. Knowing your blood sugar level quickly can help alert you to when your level has fallen or risen outside the target range. In some cases, this will help prevent an emergency situation.
Whether you are a diabetic or not, at Park Lane Pharmacy we provide this service to all adults that would like their blood glucose checked. Our pharmacist and trained healthcare staff carry out this service with no appointment necessary, just call 01708741469 or pop in to check availability of staff at the time!
High blood pressure, or hypertension, rarely has noticeable symptoms and if left untreated, can increases your risk of serious problems such as heart attacks and strokes.

No appointments needed, easily accessible location and just a quick consultation, we ensure a hassle free service to all our patients. Simply walk in and ask to speak to our friendly and professional pharmacist about the morning after pill.
Our pharmacist will need to see the person that the emergency contraception is intended for, and will need to ask a few questions regarding the patients’ medical history. This is done in the privacy of our consultation room and everything discussed is in complete confidence. The sooner you come to our pharmacy to take the morning after pill, the greater the chances of avoiding pregnancy.
If the Pharmacist feels like Levonelle One Step is not suitable for you, they will not give you the morning after pill, but advise you to see your health care professional.
We are one of the few pharmacies that are able to provide the morning after pill free of charge to patients who are aged 24 and under, and who meet the NHS criteria. Alternatively, the pill can be purchased privately from our pharmacy.
About Emergency Contraception (Levonelle One Step) -
When it comes to sex, even if you’ve taken precautions, sometimes things don’t quite go to plan. Accidents happen with contraception and things go wrong all the time. You may even just be worried that your contraceptive pill hasn’t worked. If you’ve had unprotected sex or you’re worried about contraception failure, here is some of the information you need to know about Levonelle One Step -
- Levonelle One Step is an emergency contraceptive that can be used within 72 hours (3 days) of unprotected sex or if your contraceptive method has failed.
- There is one white tablet in the pack and it is most effective when taken within the first 12 hours
- The tablet contains a hormone called Levonorgestrel.
- Levonelle One Step is thought to work by stopping your ovaries from releasing an egg or by preventing sperm from fertilising any egg that may have already been released
- If you are over 16 you can get Levonelle One Step over the counter at our Pharmacy
- If you are under 16 you cannot buy Levonelle One Step at the Pharmacy, you need to visit your GP or a Walk-In centre
- Levonelle One Step works to prevent a pregnancy becoming established, it does not work if you are already pregnant
- You should only use Levonelle One Step in emergencies, not as a regular form of contraception
Please note, there are other emergency contraceptive options available through your doctor or at a Walk-In centre.
If you do have any questions or require any further information please do not hesitate to contact us.
Flu can be serious for those more at risk of developing complications and these people are entitled to a free NHS flu jab. We offer the flu jab free to eligible people aged 18 and over. Even if you had the jab last year, strains change and protection decreases so you should get one every year, particularly if in one of the vulnerable groups below:
If you are eligible for a free flu jab, our pharmacist can provide them with no appointment necessary. Just call 01708741469 or pop in beforehand to check availability and we will do our best to get you protected as soon as possible!
