Repeat Prescriptions
If you are on long-term medication you will be given a computerised prescription. The prescription will have a list of your drugs attached and you should retain this to use when ordering a repeat prescription. Please tick the items you require.
Repeat prescriptions may be requested:
- By post, enclosing a stamped addressed envelope if the prescription is to be returned.
- Personally at the reception desk by putting your request in the box situated on the wall in the waiting room.
In order to avoid mistakes and ensure your safety, we do not accept requests for repeat medication over the telephone. In exceptional circumstances eg if you are housebound, it may be possible to waive this, but this must be negotiated with your GP or the practice manager.
Local chemists collect prescriptions from the surgery daily, so please indicate whether or not you would like your prescription sent directly to the chemist of your choice or whether you would prefer to collect it from the surgery. Please remember that there are certain medications that cannot be prescribed without first seeing the doctor.
Please allow two full working days before calling to collect your prescription.
