Medication

It's important that you take your medication as advised and that if you have any questions, queries or concerns about the drugs that you're taking, you discuss them with your GP. Drugs are prescribed by the Clinical Team on either a one-off, or a repeat basis.

Repeat Prescriptions

It is a prescription which you and your doctor have agreed previously can be requested using the repeat slip for certain drugs. Your doctor will give you are computer generated slip for these medicines and you will not need to make an appointment with the doctor to obtain a prescription unless the medication needs to be 're-authorised'.
Order form for requesting them online is here

How to obtain repeat medication

This can be requested in person at reception (where you should leave your tear-off slip), by post (enclose a SAE) or by the website using the online form. Your prescription will be available for collection by 2pm on the following day. Repeats are not accepted over the telephone except in exceptional circumstances because experience has taught us that sometimes mistakes are made using this route.

Pharmacies

A trip to your local pharmacy could save you a visit to you GP as pharmacists can offer advice on many minor ailments and injuries. Many also offer services such as diabetes and anti-coagulation (blood thinning) clinics and, thanks to recent NHS changes, more pharmacies will be offering a greater number of services.
