POLICY
FOR REPEAT PRESCRIPTION
Patients on regular medication will receive a computerised prescription. Attached to this will be a repeat request slip for the next renewal. This should be retained by the patient and either hand delivered, or posted to the surgery when the prescription is due. Failure to use the request slip may result in a delay to the prescription being issued.
Please allow two full working days before collection. Alternatively, the prescription can be sent to you if an SAE is enclosed. It is also now possible to order repeat prescriptions via the internet. Please ask at reception for details.
PLEASE NOTE: To eliminate possible error, repeat prescriptions cannot be taken over the telephone.
