- Your doctor will explain the repeat prescription system upon beginning regular treatment.
- You can order a repeat prescription via this website, using our secure online form or by telephoning the surgery.
- Please provide the exact drug names wherever possible.
- Please allow at least 24 hours after submitting your request before collecting your prescription from the surgery or your chosen chemist.
- Your doctor will review all repeat prescriptions regularly.
- Patients with some chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and asthma will be seen regularly for monitoring of their condition.
- Please tell us of any changes to your repeat prescription list made at the hospital or if you stop any medication by yourself.
