Repeat Prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions can only be ordered in writing, there is a request form available on our website.

Requests for repeat prescriptions will not be taken over the telephone.

Your doctor will review your repeat prescription regularly and may add or remove items as appropriate.  Do not over order and "stock pile" medicines at home 'just in case' as it is unsafe and wasteful.

It takes 3 working days before your prescription is ready for collection.

Repeat Dispensing

If you are on regular medication which does not change and use the same pharmacy, it may be possible for you to collect your repeat prescription direct from your pharmacy every month rather than from the surgery. Please ask your doctor for information.

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines.  Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.

Please allow 72 hours, excluding weekends and Bank Holidays, for your request to be processed. Any problems please telephone the surgery.
