Are common prescription medications available in Scotland?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Scotland if common prescription medications are available in Scotland, they wrote...

"Prescription medications are available in Scotland, just as they are in other parts of the United Kingdom. Patients can obtain prescription medications from their local pharmacy or from a doctor's office. The medications available in Scotland are the same as those available in other parts of the UK, including antibiotics, painkillers, and other medications for a variety of conditions. In addition, Scotland has its own unique system of providing free prescriptions to those who qualify, which helps to ensure that everyone has access to the medications they need," explained one expat living in Scotland.
