Prescription Collection Service:

The Practice operates a repeat prescription collection service whereby, your nominated pharmacist collects the prescription which can then be obtained from the pharmacy. Please allow time for the pharmacy to collect and process your prescription.

Please note, once a preferred pharmacy is put in place, to avoid confusion, all prescriptions will be automatically diverted to this pharmacy. Please clearly state if you do not wish this to be the case in an individual circumstance (eg if item is needed urgently and you wish to collect yourself).

Key Points

  • All repeat prescriptions should be ordered at least 2-3 working days before your medications run out.
  • Please allow 48 hours between ordering and collection and make allowances for weekends and public holidays. 
  • If your pharmacy collections your prescription for you, please allow them additional time to process your prescription.
  • Not all medication is suitable to be given as a repeat, this will be decided by your doctor. The usual amount supplied is also decided by your doctor.
  • Please only re-order medicines that you need. Stockpiling medicines may lead to waste if your medicines are changed, or they go out of date.
  • Dispose of unused medication responsibly. Take it to your usual pharmacy.
  • It is your responsibility to keep your medication safe.
