If you are on regular medication, you can order repeat prescriptions by completing the tear off section of your prescription form. This may be left in the letter box outside by the surgery front door, in the box at reception or posted.

Alternatively you can order online via the link at the top of this page. New users are required to complete a simple registration prior to using the service.

We do not accept repeat prescriptions over the phone.

A duplicate of your repeat prescriptions can be requested from reception. Please use this as this reduces errors.

Please allow 24 working hours for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.

Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.

Help with NHS costs

In England, around 90% of prescription items are dispensed free. This includes exemptions from charging for those on low incomes, such as:

• those on specific benefits or through the NHS Low Income Scheme
• those who are age exempt
• those with certain medical conditions
• More information is available at NHS Choices

These charges apply in England only. In Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales prescriptions are free of charge.

• Prescription (per item): £9.65
• 12-month prepayment certificate (PPC): £111.60
• 3-month PPC: £31.25

If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months or more than 14 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC.
