Which pharmacy will my online prescription go to?
The one you choose when you book — for example, a pharmacy near Limerick City. 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.
Do I have to travel to see the doctor?

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.
