Ordering repeat prescriptions
The easiest way to order repeat prescriptions is:
- using your NHS account (through the NHS website or in the NHS App)
This account shows you all your repeat medicine and dosage and you can choose the ones you need.
You can also:
- bring the repeat slip to the surgery, when we are open.
- phone us on 01562 730775, Monday to Friday, when we are open
Collecting your prescription
You can usually collect your prescription from the pharmacy 2 working days after you have ordered it.
If you have questions about your medicine, ring the dispensary on 01562 730775.
The NHS website has information on how your medicine works, how and when to take it, possible side effects and answers to your common questions.
If you would like to speak to someone at the GP surgery about your prescription:
- phone our pharmacist after 10am on 01562 730775
- visit the practice, when we are open.
If you have a repeat prescription, we may ask you to come in for a regular review. We will be in touch when you need to come in for a review.

Take it to the dispensary. Do not put it in your household bin or flush it down the toilet.
As qualified healthcare professionals, pharmacists can offer advice on minor illnesses such as:
- coughs
- colds
- sore throats
- tummy trouble
- aches and pains
They can also advise on medicine that you can buy without a prescription.
Many pharmacies are open until late and at weekends. You do not need an appointment.
Most pharmacies have a private consultation room where you can discuss issues with pharmacy staff without being overheard.
