About
McDowell Pharmaceuticals is an independent, family owned pharmaceutical wholesaler.
We are licensed to wholesale in the EEA and UK, and hold that licence with the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)*.
We offer extensive ranges of products for pharmacy, many at discounted prices.
Courier Based Delivery
We offer a next day (courier-based) delivery service throughout Ireland** & are open Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5.30pm.
We have been serving the independent pharmacy sector in Ireland since 2000. We have always taken a pride in the service we offer, building strong long-term customer relations.
Wide Range of Products - Republic of Ireland
In the Republic of Ireland we offer surgical items. All surgical items are ‘CE’ marked and are the same as the local product or of the same quality standard.
An extensive range of unlicensed medicines (ULM) are available (otherwise referred to as “unauthorised medicinal products”). Please see more details on restrictions and obligations pertaining to the purchase of ULMs in the relevant section of the website. We do not supply cold chain products.
We carry much of the range of Venalink Monitored Dosage Systems (in the Cold Seal range), offering great value on these.
We supply a range of over the counter lines for pharmacy. This includes batteries, fragrances, skincare products, vitamin and mineral supplements, and food supplements.
We carry the Milton-Lloyd range of fragrances, which are high quality, but low cost. This is mainly due to the fact that a negligible spend on marketing allows the product range to be offered at a relatively low price, without compromise to quality.
Wide Range of Products - Northern Ireland
In Northern Ireland we also offer surgical items pharmaceuticals and over the counter products.
These fall into the following four categories:-
• Surgical items, including dressings, test strips, needles, etc., all of which are ‘CE’ marked
• Generic medicines, all of which are licensed for the UK market
• ‘Over the counter’ medicines
• Branded ethical pharmaceuticals, both UK and Parallel Imports, all of which are licensed for the UK market
• A limited range of unlicensed medicines (otherwise referred to as ‘unauthorised medicinal products)
• Non-branded fragrances. We carry the Milton-Lloyd range of fragrances, which are high quality, but low cost. This is mainly due to the fact that a negligible spend on marketing allows the product range to be offered at a relatively low price, without compromise to quality
• We do not supply cold chain products
These product ranges are extensive, but not unduly so. We try to offer a manageable portfolio of product so as to minimise out of stocks and avoid obsolete listings in our pricelist.
