Written by Giulio Garaffa, MD, PhD, FRCS(Urol) · Last updated

1,725 listed pharmacies are listed within Scotland, including 41 listed as open around the clock; you can ask any of them about Probiotics. Availability is not guaranteed at any single pharmacy, so phone first to check.

For local detail, see the city table below.

Probiotics is cataloged as a nutrition product under UK food law, rather than as a UK-licensed medicine. It has not been assessed by the MHRA and is not intended to treat or prevent any disease.

Manufacturers of food supplements do not have to show the same evidence as for a licensed medicine, so read the label and talk to a pharmacist or doctor with any questions. What is on the label reflects the manufacturer's own formulation, not a regulator-tested batch, so treat label claims with some caution.
