Gluten-Free Service
At Slamannan Village Pharmacy, we have a passion for helping the community to live happily and healthy. You can now register with us if you’ve been diagnosed with Coeliac disease so that we can assist you in managing the condition by providing gluten-free service in Falkirk.
Our gluten-free service is voluntary for those who need only to eat gluten-free foods as part of their healing process. This service is accessible through a number of Scottish community pharmacies, including Slamannan Village Pharmacy.
As part of the prescription, we provide all gluten-free foods at no extra cost.

You are eligible for this service if you:
– Have dermatitis herpetiformis or coeliac disease

It’s worth noting that you won’t be able to use the gluten-free service if you stay in a care home. However, you can still receive your prescription via a GP.
