Prescription collection and delivery service being trialled

Wed, 10 Jun 2020

A new service is being trialled enabling people to use the Post Office to collect and deliver their prescriptions for free.

Prescription medication can be ordered in the normal way – online via Patient Access, or by dropping a prescription slip to a pharmacy – which can then be collected by the Isle of Man Post Office for delivery direct to a home address.

Medications collected from the pharmacy are then dropped off at the door.  They're also safe, with contactless delivery and tracking.  

Three branches of Lloyds Pharmacy are taking part in the 12 week trial: Anagh Coar, Shoprite Victoria Road, and Village Walk Onchan.  Customers will be asked if they wish to take up the offer of the delivery service.

The public is reminded only to order the medication they need for up to one month ahead.
