Prescriptions

The easiest ways to order repeat prescriptions are:

• using the NHS App (find out more here)
• using the online services linked above : SystmOnline

You can also:

• bring a paper request to the surgery and leave it in the repeat prescription box

Please allow up to 3 working days for your prescription to be processed and sent to your nominated pharmacy.

You can track the progress of your prescription request using the NHS app. This could save a phone call to the GP practice or nominated pharmacy.

You can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 3 to 5 working days after you have ordered it.

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:

• on the app or website where you order repeat prescriptions
• at your GP practice
• at any pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions
