Important Information About Repeat Prescriptions

Reducing Medicines Waste


If you take regular repeat medication, please follow the bellow steps to place your monthly order:

  1. Please order up to 5 days in advance and allow 72 hours before trying to collect your prescription
  2. You can order using an app or at the reception desk
  3. Please ensure to check the medication when collecting from the pharmacy

Online Repeat Prescriptions

You can order your repeat prescriptions using a patient app on your smartphone.

To use an online smartphone app, you can speak to a member of the reception team and collect your unique login details at the practice.

Nominating a pharmacy

All our prescriptions are issued via an electronic prescription service and are sent straight to a pharmacy. You will need to choose a pharmacy to collect your prescription from. We call this nominating a pharmacy.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:

  • Using the app or website where you order repeat prescriptions
  • At your GP practice
  • At any pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions 

Medication reviews

If you have a repeat prescription, we may ask you to come in for a regular review. Please book a routine appointment for your review.

Questions about your prescription

If you have questions about your medicine or your prescription please contact the surgery.

Your local pharmacists can also answer any questions about your prescription. They can answer questions on medicines you can buy without a prescription.
