Please note that we need a minimum of 2 working days (excluding Saturday, Sunday and Bank Holidays) from receipt of your request, to process your prescription. Please see the timetable below.

If you need a repeat prescription, this may be requested in a number of ways:

• in person
• by fax
• by letter
• Online Repeat Prescriptions to place your request online.

Please note that we do not accept requests by telephone.

If you would like your prescription sent to you, please enclose a stamped addressed envelope.

If you would like us to send your prescription to a chemist please state this clearly on your request. You will need to let your chemist know and mark your prescription clearly each time when ordering. Please be aware that you will need to allow 4 working days from the point of ordering to collecting from your chosen chemist.

You will only be permitted a limited number of repeat prescriptions before being asked to see your doctor for a review.

If you are asked to attend before further prescriptions are issued, please make a routine appointment with the Doctor. If you are on regular medication please ensure that you have had a review of your medication at least once per year.
