Ordering Repeat Prescriptions |
|
| |
 |

Please, please,
please give us at least two working
days to re-order your repeat
prescription.
This gives us the time to review
your medication effectively and the
flexibility to fit this in around
running surgeries, doing home
visits, accepting telephone calls
and other practice work. Studies
have shown that 48 hours is “the
Gold Standard” and turnaround times
faster than that are associated with
more medication mistakes and
prescribing errors.
We would much prefer if you do not
order your medication through your
pharmacy as they will not be aware
of any recently added or changed
medication; it is always safer to
order from us directly, using the
right-hand side of your prescription
slip and this can delivered to us by
hand or post and we will happily
then pass on the prescription we
generate to any local pharmacist you
nominate or return it if you enclose
a SAE.
Please order all your repeat
medication at the same time:
Sometimes it will take a, one off,
effort to bring all your medication
in line- and your doctors, nurses or
pharmacist can help with this, but
once they are in line you only need
order and collect your prescription
once and not as each separate item
runs out.
