Repeat Prescriptions

To request a repeat prescription you can:

  • Use this online form

Your prescription will be ready for collection within 48 hours, therefore, please make sure that you have at least 2 days' medication left before you ask for another prescription.

Online Repeat Prescriptions

You can now order your repeat prescriptions online.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:

  • Online, on the app or website where you order repeat prescriptions
  • At your GP practice

Collecting your prescription

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

Questions about your prescription

If you have questions about your medicine or your prescription please contact the surgery.

Your local pharmacists can also answer any questions about your prescription. They can answer questions on medicines you can buy without a prescription.
