Repeat Prescriptions

 

Please follow the guidelines and choose the right option for you.

Please allow us 48 hours (two working days), to process your prescription request and make allowances for weekends and public holidays.

Where possible please give exact drug names when ordering.

Please request repeat medication well in advance and remember to make an appointment to see the doctor before your review date expires.

We do not accept repeat prescription requests over the phone.

Pharmacy Ordering / Collection Service

Some Pharmacies offer a prescription collection service from our Practice

Your pharmacy can also order your medication on your behalf. This saves you time and unnecessary visits to the Practice. Please contact the Pharmacy of your choice for more information if you wish to use this service.

The surgery is able to transmit prescription requests directly to the pharmacy. Please discuss this with your pharmacist if you are interested in setting this up.
