UTI Treatment for Women
A urinary tract infection (UTI) can cause a burning feeling when you wee, needing to go more often, and cloudy or strong-smelling urine. Through the NHS Pharmacy First service, a pharmacist at Orford Jubliee Pharmacy in Warrington can assess and treat uncomplicated UTIs in women aged 16 to 64 — free, with no GP appointment or referral. Your pharmacist checks your symptoms against clinical criteria and, where appropriate, supplies treatment along with self-care advice. Consultations are private and discreet, and usually available the same day.
