Repeat Prescription

We strongly recommend that you use the NHS App to request your medications. It is straightforward to download and register your details. Then, you can communicate your request directly to your health practitioner for processing quickly. If you require further information on this, please get in touch with us via nhsnwl.shcadmin@nhs.net for more details.

NHS App

Get a username and password through our reception staff (only needs to be done the once).

Tick the medication you want from your medical record and the press send.
Your prescription will be ready after 48 hours (2 working days).

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to consult with the doctor at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.

To help us…

  • Don’t forget about public bank holidays – get your prescriptions in advance. Please don’t leave things until the last minute as this creates unnecessary and avoidable pressure on the surgery during these busy times.
  • Some medication IS given to you by the doctor as a one off. Please do not ask for these via our repeat prescription service. If you need them, speak to the pharmacist or doctor.
  • Please remember to nominate a chemist so we can send the prescription directly to them. This will save you having to come to the surgery to collect it (although you can still do this if you prefer).
