How to Order a Repeat Prescription

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

Repeat prescriptions can be requested in the following ways:

  • Complete our online form
  • Via the NHS app
  • Via Patient Access
  • Handing in a written request at the surgery
  • Patients can nominate a pharmacy to request a repeat prescription on their behalf. This will need to be arranged with the pharmacy where you wish to collect your prescriptions from

Repeat prescription requests take 2 working days to process if the request is submitted before midday. If your repeat prescription request is submitted after midday it will not be reviewed until the next working day. Prescription requests may take longer to process around busy periods including bank holidays.

If you order a prescription online then the practice will only contact you if there is a query. Otherwise, it will be ready to collect at your nominated pharmacy in the time frame outlined above.

If you require an urgent prescription in less than 2 working days please call the practice on 020 7288 9320.

Regular medications can be added to your repeat prescription list after a discussion with a GP or practice pharmacist.

 

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to speak to a doctor, pharmacist, 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.
