Repeat Prescriptions

 

How to Order a Prescription?

To request a repeat prescription, please follow the guidelines and choose the right option for you.

Please allow 48 hours (two working days) for your prescription to be prepared, e.g. if you need your medication for Monday morning you will need to request it by the previous Wednesday pm. Weekends and Bank Holidays do not count within the 48 hours.

If you need to collect your medication early because you are going away, please make a note on the tear-off slip or tell the receptionist.

We do not accept repeat prescription requests over the phone.

Repeat Dispensing

If you, or someone you care for, use the same medicines regularly, you may be able to benefit from repeat dispensing from your pharmacist. This means you won't have to visit the surgery every time you need more medicines. The service is also referred to as the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS)
