Order a repeat prescription

If you take Medicine regularly, you will usually have a repeat prescription.

This means that you can order your medicine when you need it without having to see a GP.

You cannot order repeat prescriptions by phone. This is to protect patient safety.

Ways to order a repeat prescription

We no longer accept paper repeat prescription requests.

You can order your repeat prescription through:
