Prescriptions

Mellerick's Pharmacy is licenced by the Pharmaceutical Society of Ireland (PSI) to dispense the full range of prescribed drugs and medicines We also have agreements with the Health Service Executive (HSE) to provide services under the Primary Care Reimbursement Services scheme.

Healthmail is a new initiative from the HSE which is a really convenient way for you to get your prescription from your GP to us.

Healthmail

Save time and avoid any unnecessary visits to the GP surgery? Ask them to use Healthmail to send your prescription to us.

With the recent change in prescription laws because of the pandemic, your GP can now send a legal prescription via Healthmail - a safe and secure email portal exclusively for healthcare professionals who work with the HSE. This electronic prescription replaces the traditional paper prescription and the need for you to call to your doctors’ surgery to physically collect the prescription.

Just ask your GP to email your prescription to mellerick.fermoy@healthmail.ie and you can collect it directly from us without having to go to their surgery.

Please note: Healthmail email addresses are for GP & Hospital use ONLY
