Emailing Repeat Prescription Requests

Please contact the Surgery to register for our online services which will allow you to book appointments online also.

Patients can then register or simply the form and send. We aim to have prescriptions ready within 72 working hours from date received.

Repeat Prescriptions

PRESCRIPTIONS READY WITHIN 72 WORKING HOURS

Patients are responsible for ordering their repeat medication so as not to run out. This can be done up to 2 weeks before the due date (exceptions apply for certain medicines).

Repeat Prescriptions are processed and may be ready for collection within 72 working hours.  However please allow extra time for your script to go to your nominated pharmacy.

Please note that repeat prescriptions will only be issued for medication previously prescribed and authorised as a repeat by a Doctor. Repeats are not antibiotics, contraception or painkillers. Patients may be asked to make an appointment with GP before these Prescriptions are processed 

Prescriptions that have not been ordered for more than six months are longer active and require re-authorisation by a GP, which may require an appointment. Please speak to the reception staff as they may be able to request re-authorisation from the GP without an appointment.

Your health is your responsibility this includes the ordering of repeat prescriptions in time. Emergency appointments will not be allocated in order to obtain repeat prescriptions.

For Patients who are elderly and have difficulty attending the surgery; and Patients who through illness or disability, the Surgery will cooperate with local Pharmacies so that they may order and collect prescriptions. Please speak with your local Pharmacy or our Reception Staff. GPs will assess and approve as required.
