You can  order repeat prescriptions online using the above  website 24 hours a day and in weekends . Please allow 48 hours ( 2 working days) notice.

We provide printed request forms which are located in reception and can be posted into the prescription box on reception.

It is important that you allow 48 hours notice—prior to running out of your medication for these requests.

We will not be able to accept repeat prescriptions by phone from January 2016.

We will accept repeat prescription requests by post, but if you want them posting back to you we will need to provide a stamped addressed envelopes.

We are sorry but we cannot accept verbal requests over the reception desk, as this breaks medical  confidentiality regulations and causes delays for other patients waiting.

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.
