Where a pharmacy has no reviews we show "Not yet rated" — we never invent scores.Listings labelled Featured orReferral partner are paid placements; payment affects visibility only, never ratings or match results.

Pharmacies in Edinburgh — FAQ

How do I find a pharmacy near me in Edinburgh?▼

Enter your Edinburgh postcode on Pick My Pharmacy to see community and online pharmacies serving your area. Filter by what you need — NHS prescriptions, Pharmacy First, vaccinations, or travel health — then compare services, private prices, and reviews side by side.

How much is a private flu jab in Edinburgh?▼

Private flu jabs in Edinburgh typically cost £13–£27. If you're eligible for a free NHS flu jab — for example, you're 65 or over, pregnant, or have certain health conditions — any pharmacy offering the NHS flu service can vaccinate you at no charge.

Do prescription charges vary between Edinburgh pharmacies?▼

No — NHS prescriptions are free in Scotland, so you pay nothing at any Edinburgh pharmacy. Only private services, such as flu jabs, travel vaccinations, or earwax removal, vary in price between pharmacies.

Are there late-night pharmacies in Edinburgh?▼

Many larger Edinburgh pharmacies — particularly those in supermarkets and retail parks — open into the evening, and some hold extended or 100-hour opening contracts. Check each pharmacy's profile for details, and use NHS 111 to find the nearest open pharmacy out of hours.

Do I pay for prescriptions in Edinburgh?▼

No. NHS prescriptions have been free in Scotland since 2011, so you pay nothing at any Edinburgh pharmacy. Private services — such as travel vaccinations or private flu jabs outside the NHS scheme — are still paid for.
