Infected Insect Bites

The consultation is an important step in our process for getting a proper diagnosis for your infected insect bite condition and determine what the appropriate treatment plan is for you.

The information we receive from your questionnaire enables us to evaluate your specific condition and ensure that you receive care that is appropriate for you.

The consultation is quick and convenient. It can typically be completed in under 2 minutes by providing us with details about your condition and general medical background.

To complete the consultation, you will need to provide details about your condition such as the source of your insect bite or sting and the time it’s been since it occurred. You will also need to provide information on your medical background such as any allergies you suffer from and previous medications.

Once the consultation is complete, you are then able to request and purchase your Infected Insect Bites treatment. Your consultation will be reviewed by one of our prescribers, and we will be in touch if they require any further information from you.

Once the treatment is confirmed as appropriate for your specific insect bite condition, it will be packed in discreet, recyclable packaging and shipped using your chosen delivery option.

You will be able to request your desired treatment for your Infected Insect Bites condition after completing the consultation. Treatment options include:

• Clarithromycin
• Erythromycin
• Flucloxacillin

A prescriber will review your consultation and determine if your requested treatment is appropriate for you based on your consultation responses. Please note that the decision to prescribe a specific medication always rests with the prescriber.

You should complete a new Infected Insect Bites consultation whenever your condition changes. Completing a new consultation provides us with up-to-date information on your condition which may alter what the appropriate medicine is for you in this case. This ensures that we adhere to the guidelines set by the GPhC and provide you with the right treatment.

Someone else can complete the Infected Insect Bites consultation for you if you are unable to. However, they will need to have access to your relevant medical information and have a good understanding of your current condition and situation. Please make sure that all the information provided during the consultation process is accurate and correctly reflects your current situation.

The consultation is conducted online via a quick and convenient questionnaire. You will answer questions prepared by our clinicians to understand your specific condition and determine if infected insect bite treatment is right for you.

There are no further requirements beyond completing the consultation. Once the consultation is complete, you will be able to select and purchase your desired treatment for your Infected Insect Bites condition.

For further information on your condition, our free Ask-a-Pharmacist service will put you in touch with one of our prescribers who will be happy to answer any of your questions and provide you with professional medical advice.
