Requesting prescriptions

​

You can request repeat prescriptions in writing or by using Patient Access.

If you require log in details for patient access, contact reception

​

Unfortunately, NHS regulations don't allow us to routinely take repeat medication requests over the phone. If you aren't yet registered for patient access, you can use this online form. 

​

We ask for a minimum of 2 working days to process repeat medication requests.

 

We usually receive about 500 requests each day, so there is a lot of work being done by our clinical pharmacists checking prescriptions behind the scenes.

 

Requests for urgent prescriptions are dealt with individually by the duty GP - we'll take account of the circumstances and aim to deal with these in an appropriate time frame according to the urgency. 

​

We now issue almost all prescriptions electronically, directly to pharmacies. You can nominate a pharmacy yourself, using Patient Access, or let us know the chemist that you want your prescriptions sent to.
