The surgery does not accept prescription requests over the telephone due to safety. A two full working days notice (ideally 5) is required for medicines orderline and the surgery. You may not need to take some medicines all the time (for example, pain killers). You do not need to order these every time, but only when you need them. Your medicines should last for the same number of days. If you are running out or have too much of some medication, please tell one of the practice staff or the pharmacy. We will adjust the quantities so that you only have to make on request every 28 or 56 days for your regular items. An appointment with a Pharmacist or GP at least every 12 months to review your medication. At your next appointment tell the doctor if there are items that you are no longer taking. Always ask the Pharmacist or GP if you are unsure of any of your medicines. Do not stockpile medicines at home. Only order those items that you need.

This practice is set up for the electronic prescription service. For more information and to see if your medication can go onto this system please contact the surgery pharmacisit.

Staff are trained to deal with prescription requests and are able to resolve problems while patients are on the phone. Patients will also be told if a review is needed and this information is passed to the surgery so that this can be organised prior to when they order again.
