How to order your repeat prescription
Online
The easiest way to order a repeat prescription is to register for online services.
Simply log in to the online portal and visit the medication section.
You then tick the prescriptions you want.
In person
You can do this by returning the right hand half of a previous prescription with the required medications ticked, or by submitting a handwritten request.
Please put this repeat prescription request in the post box adjoining Main Reception.
By post
You can post your prescription slip or written request to us at the practice. You can include a stamped addressed envelope for return by post if you will not be able to pick up your prescription from the surgery.
Your Pharmacy
Arrange for your regular pharmacy to submit and collect your prescription
Prescription requests must be received before 5pm and will be available for collection after 3.30pm 48 hours following your request. If you are going on holiday ensure you have adequate supplies.
Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescription.
Hospital Requests
When you are discharged from hospital you should normally receive five days supply of medication.
On receipt of your medication requirements, which will be issued to you by the hospital, please bring this to the surgery or post via S.A.E. before your supply of medication has run out.
Hospital requests for change of medication will be checked by the GP first, and if necessary your Doctor will issue you with a Prescription. The Practice will endeavour to issue you with your prescription on that day, but it cannot be issued until your medical details are checked by the Doctor, your prescription should normally be ready by 4pm on that day, or you may be advised to attend the next day.
The Doctors will review your medication, regularly, which may involve changes to your tablets, in accordance with current health Board policies. Please be reassured that this will not affect your treatment.
