PRESCRIPTION REQUESTS
You can order a repeat prescription via email, using one of the patient app’s such as myGP or the NHS app, or alternatively we will have a prescription box in reception for you to drop your repeat slip into.
When ordering repeat prescriptions, please allow a MINIMUM of 48 hours before collection.
Nominating 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:
- Online, on 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.
