We Are Available To Meet Your Needs
We are conveniently located in Lucan Village on the triangle at 4 Main Street next door to Centra and the Post Office.
Lucan Village Pharmacy is the only late night pharmacy in Lucan village. We are also open six days a week including bank holidays in Lucan village. We know that medical issues can arise at any time and it is important to be available to meet the needs of the community which is why we offer you these extended opening hours.
Healthcare Services
Our consultation room allows you access to a wide range of services. Appointments are not required to avail of these services. You can just drop in to us. However if you would like to make an appointment you can phone us or book online here and avail of our online discount. Our services include cholesterol testing, blood pressure measuring, winter flu vaccinations, and emergency contraception in addition to smoking cessation programs and weight management programs.
Diabetes Service
As healthcare providers we are aware of the growing risk of diabetes. Currently 1 in 3 Irish families are affected by diabetes. We are offering free diabetes tests to anyone concerned about diabetes. The test is carried out in our consultation room. You can just drop in to us, fill out a short form, and then the test is performed. You get the result within 1 minute of the end of the test. We also provide you with a free blood pressure measuring service that is also performed in our consultation room.
Health Clinics
We also provide our customers with one day clinics that offer specialised services and advice. These one day clinics are free. In our upcoming events we will be having a dietitian, a breast feeding clinic, an asthma clinic, a baby feeding event, and a diabetes clinic. During these clinics an expert will provide one-to-one advice about the topic of the session. You can get more information on these clinics by following us on Facebook, signing up for our upcoming events emails, or just dropping in and asking us for details.
Prescription Services
We dispense prescriptions on all the community drug schemes. We have been trained to offer advice on a broad range of medical issues from details about your prescription to vitamins to baby care. In our consultation room you can talk privately with the pharmacist or another member of the team without making an appointment. We offer a free blister packing (monitored dosage system) service to patients to help ensure that their medication is taken correctly. Blister packing removes the stress from managing your medication. Instead of you having different boxes and vials of tablets you have a single card that contains each day’s medication broken into morning, afternoon, evening and night time. We also offer a repeat prescription service allowing you to contact us to prepare your prescription. You can complete a form to order your repeat prescription online. This saves you time waiting for your prescription to be prepared.
Prescription Savings
In these difficult times we know that you want your euro to go further. If you qualify for the medical card, Hepatitis C scheme, or the Long Term Illness scheme you will receive all or part of your prescribed drugs and medicines for free. Medical card holders are required to pay a small government levy. Otherwise every Irish resident is entitled to use the Drugs Payment Scheme which means that you and your family will pay no more than a fixed amount, set by the Minister of Health, in a month for all of your prescribed drugs and medicines. You are also entitled to claim tax relief on medical expenses for prescribed drugs or medicines. You can save on the cost of your drugs and medicines by choosing the generic alternative to a branded product.
