Repeat Prescriptions

 

To request a repeat prescription, please follow the guidelines below and choose the right option for you.

If your requested medication is not on the repeat list the doctor will only issue it if appropriate.

Please allow 48 Hours (two full working days) for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account. See our events and closures page to learn more.

We do not accept repeat prescription requests over the phone.

In Person

You can order in person by returning the right-hand half of a previous prescription for the required medications.

Alternatively you can submit a handwritten request. You may also write out an order for someone else, providing you include the patient’s name and date of birth and requested medication.

By Post

You can post your prescription slip or written request to us at the Surgery.

Please allow at least seven days if requesting your medication by post.

Medication Reviews

From time to time we require you to speak to the GP or Practice Pharmacist for a medication review before a repeat prescription can be issued.

Certain medication reviews require a blood test or physical checks prior to your medication review. The practice will contact you to arrange the appropriate tests. Some medications require blood tests to be done at regular intervals.
