Please follow the guidelines and choose the right option for you.

Please allow us 48 hours (two working days), to process your prescription request.

We do not accept repeat prescription requests over the phone.

Ordering a Repeat Prescription

About pharmacists

  • sore throats

They can also advise on medicine that you can buy without a prescription.

By Post

To order please use the repeat order form found on the right hand side of your prescription, marking clearly all the items you need with a tick.

Please only order what you require and place the request either in the box at the entrance to the surgery or at the local pharmacies, or you may post it to us enclosing an SAE.

Acute prescription requests

On occasions, you may wish to order medication you have been given recently but is not on your repeat order form.

This you may do by completing an acute prescription request form.

Please allow 48 hours for any request to be processed. In some cases the doctor may decide not to deal with your request because they may wish to see you for a review rather than issue a prescription.

Medication Queries

Please get in touch with the surgery to raise a query about your medication.

Medication Reviews

Try to organise your request to once a month. It is important that your treatment is monitored regularly, so please look out for any reminders on your prescription alerting you to the need to make an appointment with the doctor: for example, a medication review etc.

Antibiotics

These are very useful drugs for treating infections spread by bacteria but they are of no use on the many conditions caused by viruses eg cold and flu, most tummy upsets and sore throats. Excess use leads to resistant germs and they can induce serious side-effects. Your doctor will decide when to use them.
