HOW DO I....
Obtain A Repeat Prescription?

This practice operates a system that allows you to obtain a prescription for regular medication without seeing the doctor. This is called a repeat prescription. So that this system runs smoothly you are asked to note the following points:

  1. Two working days' notice are required for a repeat prescription to be issued. Your prescription should be ready two working days after you request it. (eg: a request received on Friday afternoon will not be ready for collection until Tuesday afternoon.)
  2. All requests for repeat prescriptions should be made in writing, ideally using the computer slip issued with your last prescription. All other written requests should include:
    • the name, address and date of birth of the patient
    • the name of the medicine
    • the dose you are currently taking
    • how often you take it
    • when it was last supplied
  3. Telephone requests will not be accepted, except for housebound patients in agreement with their G.P.
  4. Postal requests with a stamped addressed envelope are fine but please allow for your prescription to be returned to you.
  5. The doctor decides what medication is available as a repeat. Please do not request medications that are not on your repeat prescription list as these will not be issued. If you require medication not included on your prescription list, you must request it separately and you may need to see the doctor before a prescription can be done.
  6. Please only request the items you require. You do not need to request every item on your repeat list if these won't be needed before your next prescription is due. Other items will still be available for you to request if needed later.
  7. All prescriptions are reviewed every six months. If any items are expired, please ask the receptionist if you need to make an appointment to see the doctor before any further prescriptions can be issued.

Contraception and HRT can not be prescribed as a repeat prescription. You will need to book an appointment with a doctor or nurse to get this prescribed.

Repeat prescriptions can also be ordered online using the form below
