Repeat Prescriptions

Please allow 48 hours from request for the signed prescriptions to be collected. If you need a further supply of your medicines please mark (tick) clearly on the right side of the counter foil (White part) of the prescription slip with the items you need and leave in the REPEAT PRESCRIPTIONS BOX located in reception.

Ordering repeat prescriptions

You can order repeat prescriptions online:

Using your NHS account (through the NHS website or in the NHS app)
Use Patient Online Access

These accounts show you all your repeat medicine and dosage and you can choose the ones you need. 

You can also:

Fill out an online form
Bring the paper form to the surgery

When the surgery is closed you can leave your request by posting through the surgery post box / or if you wish to have the prescription posted back to your home address, please provide a stamped addressed envelope.

We no longer accept repeat prescription requests over the phone or email.

Please note: Repeats are not issued beyond your review date (on the counterfoil). We will ask to review your repeat medication at least once a year

Please do not request items that are not on your repeat prescription list as these will usually not be given. Any such requests should be discussed with the duty doctor by booking a telephone consultation.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:
