How to request your repeat medication

You can request medication in the following ways:

If you are not registered to use this service, please complete our Register for Online Services form.

  • By using a third-party application such as the NHS app.
  • By using our online Repeat Prescription Request form.
  • If you are unable to request medication online, please put your repeat prescription slip in the post box located on the right-hand side of our main entrance.

It is our practice policy to only accept written requests; telephone requests will be refused.

How long will it take to issue my request?

  • Online requests will be issued within 3 working days.
  • Paper requests will be issued within 5 working days.

We will be in touch if there is a problem with your request.

Medication Reviews

We are keen to ensure that patients with ongoing medical problems are monitored regularly.

If you have been advised by the surgery that your medication review is due, please use our online Medication Review form or inform reception. This will allow the dispensary to arrange for a pharmacist to subsequently carry out a medication review – they may not need to call you to undertake this.

We will not leave you without your medication unless the clinical risk outweighs the benefit.

If you are unable to order medications online because of an overdue medication review, you can request your medications using our online repeat prescription request form. Alternatively, you can submit a custom request which is located beneath the tick boxes where you would normally request your medication.

Electronic Repeat Dispensing (ERD)

If you or someone you care for uses the same medicines regularly, you may be able to benefit from electronic repeat prescriptions. This means you won’t have to re-order or collect your repeat prescriptions from your GP practice every time you need more medicine.
