Which pharmacy will my online prescription go to?
The one you choose when you book — for example, a pharmacy near Greencastle. If a prescription is issued, it is sent electronically to that pharmacy.

No. Your doctor decides what is safe and appropriate after speaking to you. Benzodiazepines, Z-drugs, opioids and stimulants cannot be prescribed through DrCall.

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.
What if I need a doctor in person in Greencastle tonight?
DrCall is an online service, so we cannot send a doctor to your door. For urgent in-person care when surgeries are closed in Co.
