NSW Dermatology Trial

The NSW Pharmacy Trial for skin conditions allows pharmacists to help manage common skin conditions, including with some medications usually only available with a prescription from a doctor.

You may be eli​gible to have your skin condition treated by a participating pharmacy, if you have:​

• mild to moderate atopic dermatitis (eczema) and are aged between 6 months and 65 years old (inclusive)​
  
• herpes zoster (shingles) and are 18 years and older
  
• impetigo (school sores) and are 12 months and older
  
• mild plaque psoriasis and are 18 years and older.
  

Your pharmacist will assess your skin condition and ask you questions during your consultation. 

These questions help the pharmacist to:

• check that you are eligible for treatment 
  
• assess your skin condition 
  
• provide you advice on managing your skin condition. 
  

​

You may be referred to your doctor (GP) or the Emergency Department if you require additional care.

Any medication supplied will not be covered by the PBS.
