Order Online (if registered for 'Patient Access' online services)
If you are on regular medication you may be provided with repeat prescriptions.
When you require a new supply of medication please let us have in writing the following details: Name, Date of Birth, details of the medication you require and which pharmacy you would like us to send the prescription to. The easiest way to order is via online services (see above). Alternatively, you can email the details to us (send to prescriptions.plasmeddyg@nhs.net), or drop in/post us the request.
Your prescription will be sent electronically to your nominated pharmacy.
Please order your repeat prescription a week before you will run out.
Allow three full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.
Please note requests for repeat prescriptions (except in exceptional cases) cannot be taken over the telephone for medico-legal reasons, as errors can occur.
Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication may be asked to see a doctor, clinical pharmacist or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
Please order your repeat prescription a week before you will run out, and allow three full working days for prescriptions to be processed. Remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

Prescription Fees
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.

Private Prescriptions
Please note that if you are under a private consultant then that consultant organises your prescriptions and any tests required. These cannot be done under the NHS.
