Repeat prescriptions

Did you know you can request your repeat prescription online?

The easiest, safest and quickest way to order your repeat prescription is online. There is no need to make a phone call or visit us; instead computer, smartphone or tablet users can request repeat prescriptions anywhere – 24 hours a day, seven days a week. You can also check what medication you should be taking and when.

If you are not already registered for GP online services please let a member of the practice team know you would like to use this service.

Please allow a MINIMUM of 48 hours for your repeat request to be processed.

You can request your repeat medication by:

  • Registering and ordering online. Please contact reception to register.
  • Bringing your most recent tear off slip to the surgery
  • Posting your most recent tear off slip (with a stamped addressed envelope) to the surgery

WE DO NOT TAKE YOUR ORDER BY TELEPHONE

Most pharmacies provide an order & collection service. Please contact your preferred pharmacy for details.

Please see the NHS services finder for details of local pharmacies.

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines.  Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.

There is further information about prescription exemptions and fees on the NHS website
