Order repeat prescriptions online

🏥 Order in person or via your local pharmacy

You can also order repeat prescriptions:

  • By posting your request into the surgery letter box at any time
  • Using the printed medication list attached to your last prescription — please only order what you need
  • By sending a stamped addressed envelope (SAE) with your request if you would like it posted back to you

Please note: postal requests may take up to one week to be returned.

For repeat medication, the practice will issue you with a repeat prescription slip. Requests sent by post with an SAE require at least 4 days’ notice, so please remember to order early.

Some items on your repeat slip may not be needed every month. Please clearly tick only the medication you require. This helps reduce unnecessary waste and allows local NHS resources to be used for other essential services in the community.

Generic prescribing is encouraged by local health boards. This means some branded medication may be changed to a generic version. If this happens, you will usually receive a letter explaining the change.

📞 Please do not telephone the surgery to request repeat prescriptions, as this may lead to errors and blocks important phone lines needed for urgent calls and visits.
