HOW DO I....
...Obtain A Repeat Prescription?
*PLEASE ALLOW AT LEAST TWO DAYS (excluding weekends and bank holidays) FOR THE REPEAT PRESCRIPTION TO BE GENERATED. ALLOW A FURTHER DAY IF YOU REQUIRE THE PRESCRIPTION TO BE DISPENSED.
If you need a repeat prescription you will be given a repeat prescription slip to ensure accuracy. You can order your repeat prescription by telephoning our Repeat Prescription Order line on 0844 477 3167. This line is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Your repeat prescription request slip provides a date when your medication review is due; you will need to make an appointment with a doctor/nurse practitioner/practice nurse. This is a safeguard to make sure that you are taking the medicine properly and to allow for any changes, which may be necessary. This may seem inconvenient, but an annual review is necessary for the provision of good patient care.
Prescriptions may be collected during dispensary hours only. Postal requests for repeat prescriptions (with SAE please) also require AT LEAST TWO DAYS' NOTICE, again excluding weekends and bank holidays.
A Medication Delivery Service is available for housebound patients.
There is a patient Query/Advice line available on 0844 477 3160. This line is for general enquiries only and not for ordering of prescriptions.
