You can order repeat prescriptions online:
Please allow at least two working days between ordering and collecting your paper prescription. However, if your prescription goes directly to the pharmacy this can take significantly longer, please contact your chosen pharmacy for further advice. After a given number of repeat prescriptions, you may be asked to see your doctor for a review.
Local chemists offer a prescription collection service which you can arrange by contacting the chemist direct.
New patients must be seen by the doctor before medication can be prescribed.
Please note: We would prefer our patients to order their repeat prescriptions using our online access, SystmOnline. If you would prefer not to set yourself up with online access, you can still submit your prescription via post or handing them in at the reception desk.
