Prescriptions

You can order your repeat prescriptions in a number of ways:

Please assist us by using one of the above methods to request your prescriptions.

Please note that, for safety reasons, we are no longer able to accept requests by email.

You need to allow a minimum two working days (not including weekends) for the prescription to be processed.

Please make it clear on your prescription request if you would like it to be collected from the surgery. Many pharmacies are now able to receive prescriptions from the surgery electronically – please ask your pharmacist if they are able to do this. Once set up, prescription requests can be sent automatically to your nominated pharmacy. You can tell us which pharmacy you’d like us to send your prescription to by using our online form.

If you would like your prescription posted to you, please provide a S.A.E with a stamp.

To avoid prescribing mistakes, we do not take prescriptions over the phone unless you are housebound.

In the interests of patient safety, we ask patients who have been taking the same medication for some time to have a medication review with a doctor periodically. This is for your safety and to ensure that the medication is still the most appropriate prescription for your condition.
