Rhaid diffinio pa anhwylderau y gellir eu trin trwy’r gwasanaeth newydd hwn. Fodd bynnag, byddant yn gyflyrau y gall fferyllydd cymunedol eu hadnabod a’u trin yn ddiogel ac yn effeithiol, er enghraifft llau pen, rhwymedd, diffyg traul, clefyd y gwair, peswch, dolur gwddf a tharwden y traed (athlete’s foot). Mae fferyllwyr wedi eu hyfforddi i drin anhwylderau o’r fath, ac maent eisoes yn treulio cryn dipyn o’u hamser yn rhoi cyngor ar y cyflyrau hyn. Byddaf yn disgwyl i’r fferyllfeydd cymunedol sy’n cynnig y gwasanaeth newydd hwn sicrhau ei fod ar gael ar adegau cyfleus sy’n bodloni anghenion y bobl y maent yn eu gwasanaethu.
Ailments that can be treated will need to be defined through this new service. However,  they will comprise conditions that can be recognised and treated safely and effectively by community pharmacists and may include head lice, constipation, dyspepsia, hay fever, cough, sore throat and athlete’s foot.  Pharmacists are trained to deal with such ailments and already spend a good proportion of their time advising on the treatment of these conditions.   I will be looking to those community pharmacies who provide this new service to ensure it is available at times that best meet the needs of the population they serve.
