REPEAT PRESCRIPTIONS

A repeat prescription, as agreed with your doctor, will be available for collection within 2 working days – please allow an extra day if ordering through your chemist.

This system is only for medicines that you take regularly, that have been authorised as 'repeats' by your Doctor. If your repeat prescriptions are recorded on the practice computer system, then you will have been given a re-order form with the authorised drugs on it - this is attached to your prescription.

How to Order

Facilities are available to request your repeat prescription by fax or e-mail via the practice web-site. Please use the form below to request your repeat prescription.

Alternatively, please use the tear-off slip attached to your prescription. Tick the drugs that you require, and either post it to us (write 'Prescription' on the envelope), or place in the box in the Entrance Foyer, or fax it to 0844 4773986 - but please still allow 2 working days before collecting.

PLEASE DO NOT TELEPHONE YOUR REQUEST - THIS CAN LEAD TO ERRORS.

There are three ways of collecting your prescriptions:

• Collect from the surgery after 2 working days.
• Enclose a SAE and we will post the prescription to you.
• Collect from your local Chemist*

*Most Chemists will collect prescriptions from the Surgery, so that you can collect the medicines direct from them. This saves a trip to the Surgery. If you wish to use this service then please write the name of the Chemist on the bottom of the tear off re-order slip where it says 'Chemist _______________'. Please allow a little longer for this to be completed.

If you are housebound - all chemists will deliver when necessary. Check with your Chemist and once agreed then please write 'Deliver' next to the Chemist name on the order form.
