Prescriptions

 

All prescriptions should be requested no more than 7 days in advance and you should allow three full working days before collection. You can track the status of your prescription request via the NHS App.

Please note that we cannot accept prescription requests over the telephone as errors often occur with verbal communication of drug names.

Ordering a Prescription

When you order a prescription online, you can have it sent electronically to a pharmacy of your choice. This is called a nomination.
