Repeat Prescriptions
Details on ordering and information about your repeat prescriptions.
To book or cancel an appointment online, use the buttons below:
Your doctor will have entered what medication you are taking onto our computer system. Each time a new prescription is produced by the computer it has a white detachable page showing your repeat items. You should keep the white part so that you can tick the items you require next time you need them. Requests for repeat prescriptions are not taken over the telephone, for medico-legal reasons, as errors can occur in verbal communication.
Information about ordering repeat prescriptions:
- Please allow three working days (72 hours) for your prescription to be processed.
- If you have more than one repeat prescription please try and order all of your items together.
- Tick which item on the request slip you require.
- We can send the prescription form to your home address, but please remember to enclose a stamped addressed envelope, or if you are a dispensing patient collect your medicine from our own dispensary, or have it delivered if you are housebound, or you can collect your prescription from the surgery, or you can take advantage of the prescription collection service run by local chemists. Please ask the chemist for details.
- Either deliver or post your prescription form to the surgery. For the convenience of those patients who would like to deliver their repeat prescription requests during surgery opening times, we have provided a post box in reception. To avoid having to queue please post your repeat prescription requests in this box.
- Please note: the repeat prescription form should be kept by the patient and not the pharmacist as this has led to mistakes in the past.
