Repeat Prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions will be issued at the doctors' discretion and are normally for patients on long-term treatment. Repeat prescriptions can be ordered by:

  1. sending your prescription request on the computer counterfoil with a self-addressed envelope
  2. calling into the surgery and leaving your prescription request in the box provided in the foyer or,
  3. Complete an online form to request repeat prescriptions

Please allow 48 hours (two working days) for prescriptions to be processed and signed before collecting. It helps if you order your prescription seven days before you run out of medication. We advise that you have your repeat medication reviewed once a year by your doctor. Please do not ask the doctor for a repeat prescription for other members of the family or friends when you are in with the doctor.
