Repeat Prescriptions

You can order your prescriptions in the following way:

• In person at the surgery.
• Using the Accurx Triage facility via our website. 
• Via the NHS App
• Via your nominated pharmacy
• You can post your prescription slip or written request to us at the Practice.

We require 2 working days’ notice to process your requests. We do not accept repeat prescriptions requests over the phone.

If you are due a medication review, please book this with our practice pharmacist, otherwise there may be a delay in issuing your medication.

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines. Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.

When going abroad you can take your NHS medications with you.

Please visit the NHS website for the latest Prescription Charges

These charges apply in England only. In Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales prescriptions are free of charge.
