Laois Pharmacy in Lyster Square in Portlaoise has recently launched a new service where customers can send presciptions to the shop quickly and easily using WhatsApp.
Laois Pharmacy, which is owned by the Holland family, celebrated 30 years in business in 2017 and is a customer focused community pharmacy offering a range of services including flu vaccine, 24-hour blood pressure monitor, HD Brows and Make-up Application.
Step 1
Download the WhatsApp application to your mobile phone. Add Laois Pharmacy as a contact on 087 192 4575. This is easy to do, and should not take long.
Step 2
Take a photo of the prescription, both front and back, making sure you have filled out any exemptions on the back. The photo needs to be clear, so take in a well lit area, or try using flash if you have any doubts about the photo.
Step 3
Using the WhatsApp application, send a message, with the photos attached, to 087 192 4575
Step 4
Somebody from the pharmacy will call to write back to you to confirm we have received your medication.
Step 5
Your medicine is ready for you to collect. Make sure to have the paper prescription ready to give to the pharmacist, as without this, we cannot dispense your medication.
