Prescriptions

Ordering repeat prescriptions

The easiest way to order repeat prescriptions is using the GP online system: Patient Services

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

You can also:

  • fill out a repeat prescriptions request form
  • bring the paper form to the surgery, Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm

We do not take repeat prescription requests over the phone or email.

Collecting your prescription

You can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 3 to 5 working days after you have ordered it.

You will need to choose a pharmacy to collect your prescription from. We call this your Pharmacy Preference.

You can change your Pharmacy Preference at any time. Just let us know.

Questions about your prescription

If you have questions about your medicine, your local pharmacists can answer these. They can also answer questions on medicines you can buy without a prescription.

More information about your medication and your conditions can be found at:

If you would like to speak to someone about your prescription, please submit an askmyGP request.

Medication reviews

If you have a repeat prescription, we may ask you to come in for a regular review. We will be in touch when you need to come in for a review.

What to do with old medicines

Take it to the pharmacy you got it from or bring it in to the surgery. Do not put it in your household bin or flush it down the toilet.

Pharmacy First

Visit your local pharmacy for advice on the management of common conditions e.g. urinary tract infection, coughs and colds, diarrhoea, rashes.
