Prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions are computerised and are issued by written request. Tick what you require on your prescription counterfoil or in writing with your name and date of birth and address.

You may order your prescription at the local pharmacies. Your written requests can be posted through the letter box. We will send your prescriptions electronicially to your chosen Pharmacy. Please give us up to 48 hours to complete your request.

You can nominate a pharmacy and your prescription will be sent electronically without the need for a paper prescription.

Prescription requests are not taken over the telephone, unless you are a housebound patient.

Only order what you need

Wasted or unused medicine is a serious and growing problem within the NHS that you can help tackle.

It is estimated that as much as £300million is wasted every year on unused or partially used medication.
