Repeat Prescriptions

Patients on long-term medication and approved for repeat prescriptions can order in a number of ways:

• In person - drop your counterfoil in at reception with the required items clearly marked. If we're closed pop it through the letterbox.
• By post - send it to us with a stamped addressed envelope if you want us to post it back to you.
• Online - follow the link at the top of this page and complete a simple one-off registration. Please note, this online service is available for those over 16 years of age only.

Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account. Patients using the postal service should allow longer.

Patients who have prescription items owed by the chemist because they are not available have 28 days to collect the item/s or a new prescription will have to be generated and the patient will be subject to the prescription charge again.

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

Not all prescriptions are FREE OF CHARGE, use this handy website to see if you are ELIGIBLE FOR FREE PRESCRIPTIONS 

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

• Prescription (per item): £9.00 (as from 1/4/2019)
• 12-month prepayment certificate (PPC): check on PPC website
• 3-month PPC: check on PPC website

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. 

• Telephone advice and order line 0845 850 0030
• Buy or Renew a PPC On-line

Wasting medicine wastes money!

Please help us to stop wasting medicine.  Medicine waste is costing our NHS £300,000,000 every year!  We need thousands of doctors and nurses to keep the NHS alive.  We can work together to stop medicine waste and provide more doctors, nurses and life-saving operations. 

Reasons to say NO to unnecessary medication:

• Unwanted medicines are destroyed, not reused. 
• Medicines are extremely expensive

Please help by not asking for medication that is no longer needed and help us by telling others too.

.

Please allow 48 hours, excluding weekends and Bank Holidays, for your request to be processed. Any problems please telephone the surgery.
