How to order a repeat prescription
You can get a prescription online. Use our online system to order a repeat prescription. You will need to choose a pharmacy to prepare your prescription and collect your medication from.
You will also need:
- An online account.
- The name of the medication and dosage.
- To be at least 17-years old.
If your repeat medication is not showing on your app is could be for one of the following reasons;
- It is too soon to re-order your medication
- You are due a medication review
- You have not had the medication for some time
It is unlikely that your repeats have been removed from your record. If you cannot see your medications please call 01666 825825 so we can arrange for your to have a medication review. We can usually issue enough medication to last you until your review if this is needed.
Telephone
If you have NO access to the internet you can request to be added to our list of patients who can phone to request medication. We kindly ask that this line is ONLY used by those with no other means of ordering, to keep the call queue to a minimum for those who cannot use apps or online ordering.
Call 01666 825825 and select option 4 any weekday between 2pm and 3pm. Excludes bank holidays.
Medication reviews
If you need a medication review please call 01666 825825 and select option ‘1’. Our Patient Advisers can book you a telephone consultation with one of our Clinical Pharmacists for the review.
Please remember to have any regular medication monitoring you have been asked for, such as blood tests and blood pressure checks. This enables us to safely prescribe your medication.
Urgent Prescriptions
Please ensure you order your medication with plenty of time. If you have forgotten to order, or have not ordered on time, you can request an urgent prescription by calling 111 or click here to use the online NHS 111 emergency prescriptions form. They will provide a limited issue to last you until your repeats can be issued.
How your pharmacy can help
Pharmacists are qualified healthcare professionals who can help you with minor health concerns. They can offer medical advice and over-the-counter medicines for minor illnesses like coughs, colds, tummy problems and aches and pains.
For symptoms that are more serious, we suggest visiting your GP or nurse. You can book an appointment by going to our Appointments page.
