Some medicines cannot be prescribed through DrCall at all: benzodiazepines, Z-drugs, opioids and stimulants are never prescribed.

Which pharmacy will my online prescription go to?

DrCall is not intended for children under 3. For older children, a parent or guardian should make the booking and be with them during the consultation.
