Oral Contraception Resupply

Service Description

Access to expert advice on oral contraceptive as well as access to this medication is crucial for women's health. Tara's BOURE STREET PHARMACY is proud to be a pharmacy that meets the high standard of expert knowledge and privacy requirements set by the Government to provide this service to woman in the local community. To receive hormonal contraception resupply, you must: • be aged between 18 to 49 years (inclusive) * • be taking a low-risk pill for contraception reasons (to prevent unplanned pregnancy)  • have taken the pill continuously for two years, as prescribed by a doctor (GP) or nurse practitioner.   Patients aged 40 – 49 years (inclusive) can only receive a limited supply of their oral contraceptive pill and will be referred to their GP for follow-up. This is because there are additional risks associated with hormonal contraception use in this age group. These medicines dispensed are not eligible for Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme subsidy.
