Ordering Repeat Prescriptions

The easiest way to order repeat prescriptions is by using your NHS account (through the NHS website or in the NHS App)

 This account shows you all your repeat medicines and dosage and you can choose the ones you need.

If you don’t have a nominated pharmacy, you can view a prescription barcode in the NHS App and present this to a pharmacist to collect your medicine without having to collect a paper prescription. View Your Prescriptions in the NHS App

 

If you are not registered with NHS App you can request your prescription using the  link below.

Repeat Prescription Request Form

 

IMPORTANT: If you have placed an order for medication within the last 72 hours, your request is being processed, please allow 72 hours for the request to reach the chemist and allow them 7-10 days to process.

Do not call before the 72 hours has expired as we will not be able to answer your query and you will be blocking telephone lines for urgent medical needs.
