Prescriptions

Ordering repeat prescriptions

The easiest ways to order repeat prescriptions would be to download the NHS app or email us.

We do not take repeat prescription requests over the phone.

Collecting your Prescription

You can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 2 to 3 working days after you have ordered it. You will need to choose a pharmacy to collect your prescription from. We call this nominating a pharmacy.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:

  • On the app or website where you order repeat prescriptions
  • At your GP practice
  • At any pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions

Queries about your medication

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.
