How to order a repeat prescription
If you take medicine regularly, you’ll usually have a repeat prescription.
This means you can order your medicine when you need it without having to see a GP until your next medicine review.
You might be able to ask your pharmacy for your medicine if your GP has set this up (repeat dispensing). If not, you’ll need to order your medicines from your GP surgery each time.
There are 3 ways to order a repeat prescription from your GP surgery:
- Using your NHS account
You can order a repeat prescription by logging into your account using the NHS app or NHS website, using a smartphone, tablet or computer.
Log in – NHS App Online (service.nhs.uk)
Please speak to a member of our Reception team who can help you in setting up your account.
If you wish to nominate a pharmacy, you can only nominate a high street pharmacy. You’ll be able to collect your medicine in person when it’s ready. Some high street pharmacies also deliver. - Using Patient Services
‘Patient Access’ allows you to take control of your healthcare, connecting you to local health services, including ordering repeat prescriptions.
