Questions about your prescription
If you have questions about your medicine, your local pharmacists can answer these. They can also answer questions on medicines you can buy without a prescription.
If you would like to speak to someone at the GP surgery about your prescription:
- Phone the practice on 01429 278179 and choose option 3 between 10.00am to 11.30am and 2.00pm to 3.30pm
Ordering repeat prescriptions
You can order repeat prescriptions online:
These accounts show you all your repeat medicine and dosage and you can choose the ones you need.
You can also:
- drop a repeat prescription request slip into the Practice post box, which is in the foyer before the entrance to our Practice Monday to Friday, from 8.30am to 6.00pm
We no longer accept repeat prescription requests over the phone or email.
Nominating a pharmacy
You will need to choose a pharmacy to collect your prescription from. We call this nominating a pharmacy.
You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:
- Online, on the app or website where you order repeat prescriptions
- At your GP practice
- At any pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions
