Competitive price and with fast delivery

I’ve been using Peptic Liquid to treat indigestion due to a hiatus hernia for several years and find it gives instant relief. The Independent Pharmacy offers it at a competitive price and with fast delivery. When out of stock they message me when a new batch arrives.

Simple & straightforward

I found the web consultancy very straightforward. Once agreed by the physician in less than 24hours time the meds arrived within a few days. Even had follow up emails with advice notes to ensure everything was good.

Reply from The Independent Pharmacy

Thank you for your feedback.
We're pleased to hear that you received the correct medication, although we're sorry that it did not arrive in time for your trip.
As an online prescribing service, all orders requiring prescription medication must be reviewed and approved by a clinician before they can be dispensed and dispatched. While we always aim to process orders as quickly as possible, approval times can vary depending on order volumes and the information available for assessment.
We understand how disappointing it is when an order does not arrive within the timeframe you were expecting, particularly when you are travelling. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback, which helps us continue to review and improve our service.
Kind regards,
Roni, Head of Customer Experience

Superb service

I originally asked for a particular product when the pharmacy asked for a picture, from this they recommended another more appropriate product which I must say has been absolutely amazing, the service from beginning to end has been extremely fantastic.

Always Good (& fast) Service.

I rarely make a purchase (almost annually), but when I do use The Independent Pharmacy the medication is sent immediately, often only taking 48 hours from order to delivery. Medication is genuine. So much easier and quicker than having to make an appointment with my GP (often a wait of 7 days).
