Prescriptions can be ordered no more than 1 week in advance, you can order via pharmacy, systmonline, and into the post box on reception. Prescriptions take 2 working days to be processed so please take into account weekends and bank holidays. We do not accept repeat prescription requests over the phone for accuracy and time consuming reasons.
We may invite you into the surgery to have a review of your medications however not all medication reviews require face to face appointments with the GP. If you have already attended recently and have up to date blood results and blood pressure then the GP may be able to reauthorise your medications without seeing you.
We encourage our patients to order their medications responsibly and to avoid medicine wastage from over ordering. We ask patients monitor their medication usage responsibly and therefore only order medications that they need. We ask that medications are checked whilst still in the pharmacy so that anything that isn’t required for any reason can be returned and re-used. Medications that have left the pharmacy doors cannot be re-used and will have to be destroyed. Also, where possible we ask patients to buy medications over the counter.
