The easiest way to order a repeat medication is via the NHS App or via Repeat Prescription chances are if you downloaded the app to access your COVID-19 pass you will already have an account.

Using the app means that your prescription request drops directly in to the GPs inbox. You can order your prescription at a time convenient to you and the app will show when your prescription is with the pharmacy. You can also change your nominated pharmacy should you need to.

If you are unable to use the NHS APP or the medication your require is not on your repeat list click here Something else

Other ways of ordering your prescription are to speak to your local pharmacy. 

Should you have any questions or concerns about how to order your medication please speak to one of our reception and admin team after 10:00

If you get your medication on a repeat prescription we ask that you order it in good time, we operate with a 3 working day turnaround. This allows the GPs to review your request and contact you for a review if necessary.

All newly prescribed medication generally requires a review before being put on your repeat. 

Please note - if you run out of your medication, you may be able to obtain an emergency supply (2 days) from your regular pharmacy.

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.

The NHS website has information on how your medicine works, how and when to take it, possible side effects and answers to your common questions.
