Repeat Prescriptions & Repeat "Dispensing" Prescriptions

Some regular medication can be issued on a repeat basis so you do not have to see a doctor each time. However we will not issue a repeat prescription, when you are due a review of your medication. (Please see your repeat prescription for review date)

REPEAT DISPENSING: We now offer a service for patients on stable medication, where you may "by pass" the practice and pick up your filled prescription from a designated pharmacist, Please ask Reception or your local Pharmacist if you are eligible.

REPEAT PRESRCIPTIONS: if you require a drug/medication that you have not had before or you have had it in the past and no longer have it on your current repeat prescription, then you will be asked to make an appointment to see a doctor. You can also fill out a "blue" unusual medication request form. The Doctor will then decide what action to take (please be advised that this form is not a guarantee that you will receive your request)  

We only accept written requests or online via EMIS ACCESS. Please do not use the on-line request service to ask medical questions. A request form is attached to your prescription and can be forwarded to reception either:-

*      in person 
*      by post or by fax. 
*      Alternatively some pharmacists provide a request service by prior arrangement.
 

We can post your prescription to you if you provide a stamped addressed envelope. We can send it to your pharmacist if they are part of our prescription request service.

When ordering your prescription please allow at least two working days notice (48hrs) before collection. It is your responsibility to order your medicines on time. 

For safety reasons prescription requests cannot be taken over the telephone.
