Pharmacist Prescribing Service

At Complete Care Pharmacy, our pharmacists are authorised to assess and prescribe treatment for eligible patients with uncomplicated school sores (impetigo), in line with state regulations and clinical guidelines.

You may benefit from this service if you or your child has a small, localised skin infection that appears crusted, weeping, or blistered.

During a private consultation, your pharmacist will take the time to assess the appearance and extent of the affected area, understand how long the infection has been present, and determine the most appropriate next step.

How we can help

  • Assess the appearance and extent of the infection
  • Prescribe treatment for eligible uncomplicated cases
  • Provide advice on hygiene and preventing spread
  • Discuss when it is safe to return to school or work
  • Refer you if further medical review is needed
