A pharmacist may be able to supply the contraceptive pill to:
• start using the contraceptive pill for the first time.
• start the contraceptive pill again after a break from taking it.
• get a supply of the contraceptive pill if it’s already been prescribed.
If the pharmacist gives the contraceptive pill, they will share this information with the GP if they have
permission to do so.
Anyone needing the pill can access it through participating pharmacies without a referral from their GP,
