Repeat prescriptions will be ready 48 hours after ordering (excluding weekends and bank holidays). Please make sure that you order your medications in time as we cannot guarantee we will be able to have your prescriptions ready before this time.
Wherever possible, please try to order all the medications you take regularly at the same time.
Many of the local pharmacies now offer a collection service. Please ask the receptionist for further details.
Please note that we can no longer take prescription requests over the phone.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:

Medication reviews
If you have a repeat prescription, we may ask you to come in for a regular review. Please book a routine appointment for your review.

You can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 3 to 5 working days after you have ordered it.
