Repeat Prescriptions

Please select the your practice below to order a prescription from that practice:

Patients on long-term medication can order repeat prescriptions using the tear off slip attached to their last issue. Simple tick the items required and forward it to the surgery.

Alternatively you can order online via the link at t the top of this page. If you would like to use these services but do not yet have a username and password, please ask the receptionist to register you for online services the next time you visit the surgery. The receptionist will ask for proof of identity before issuing your unique username and password. If you request online we will post your details to the correspondence address held on our database.

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.

Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.

Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

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.

NHS charges

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

• Prescription Charge (per item): £9.15
• 12-month prepayment certificate (PPC): £105.90
• 3-month prepayment certificate (PPC): £29.65

If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months, or more than 15 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC.
