HOW DO I....
OBTAIN A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION ? - 01995 672944
To request your authorised regular medications, use the copy slip enclosed with
your prescription. Simply tick the items you require and place in the box in the
Health Centre, or post it to us. Alternatively, you can telephone the above number
and leave your request on the answering machine. Please remember, it takes a minimum
of three days to get prescriptions ready for collection. Medication is usually
given in 28-day cycles and your medicines cannot be dispensed early and so may
not be ready until the due date.
It is important that people taking medications are closely monitored. You may
be asked to have routine blood tests, blood pressure checks or other procedures
from time to time.
Delivery Service -
Prescriptions can be delivered to your home if required for a nominal charge of
£1. However, you must be at home to sign for the prescription. Please contact
the pharmacy for further details or request this when you send us your repeat
prescription list.
