You can order repeat medications through the website or the NHS App. You can also complete a repeat prescription form that can be found in the reception area at the surgery.

To order prescriptions online, you need to sign up for online services, for example with an NHS Login. We have more information about how to get started online.

We can only accept prescription requests over the phone from housebound patients.

Please allow 72 hours for your prescription to be available for the pharmacy to download. They may need more time to prepare the medication for collection.

If you are due a medication review, you will not be able to order repeat medications online. Please book an appointment with a GP to get your medication.

If your medication is due when you are on holiday, please put in a special request and tell us the reason you need your medication early.

Most adults in England have to pay prescription charges. You can find information about prescription charges on the NHS website.
