How to Order Repeat Prescriptions

Patients on long term medication may, with the doctor’s agreement, be able to obtain repeat prescriptions without seeing a doctor.

This can be done in the following ways:

• Online via Patient Access Online Services – if you are not registered for the online services you will need to obtain a password and login from reception first.
  Find out how to register
• Through the repeat prescription forms attached to the prescription
• By post, providing a stamped addressed envelope for its return

Prescription requests cannot be taken over the phone, so please be careful not to run out of your medications.

We ask for a minimum of 2 working days for the repeat prescription request to be processed.

For some patients, where appropriate, it may be possible for your repeat prescription to be held by a pharmacy of your choice if you are on regular medication where conditions treated by that medication are stable – e.g Blood Pressure tablets. Please ask your GP at your next medication review.
