Online prescriptions in Lifford: what to expect

Choose your pharmacy when you book. Where a prescription is issued, it is sent electronically to that pharmacy, so you can collect it close to home in Lifford rather than posting anything.

You cannot simply order a prescription online — a doctor has to assess you first. With DrCall you book a short video or phone consultation from Lifford, discuss the medication and your health with an Irish-registered GP, and, where the doctor considers it safe and appropriate, a prescription is issued.
