Ordering Repeat Prescriptions

The quickest and easiest way to order repeat medication is online via the NHS App or SystmOnline. This is available 24/7 and allows you to track your requests and send them straight to your nominated pharmacy.

We strongly encourage all patients to use one of these online services where possible.

If you cannot use the NHS App or SystmOnline, you may request repeat medication by using the Prescription B-Side (white, right-hand side of your prescription) and dropping this in the repeat prescription box which is located outside of the surgery, next to the defib.

Please note the following:

  • Order no more than 7 days before your medication is due.

  • Allow 4 working days (not including weekends or bank holidays) for your prescription to be processed and sent to your nominated pharmacy.

  • If you have more than one repeat prescription, please try to order all items together.

  • If you require medication not listed on your repeat slip, please add this clearly to the Notes Box if you are ordering via the NHS App or SystmOnline. If you are submitting your request using the B-side, please write this clearly on the bottom of the slip.
