How to order a repeat prescription
If you take medicine regularly, you’ll usually have a repeat prescription. This means you can order your medicine without having to see a GP every time.
It’s important to request the prescription up to 5 working days before you need your medicine.
You might be able to ask your pharmacy directly for your medicine if your GP has set this up (repeat dispensing). If not, you’ll need to order your medicines through a repeat prescription from your GP surgery.
There are 3 ways to order a repeat prescription from your GP surgery:
- using your NHS account
- using other online services or apps
- contacting your GP surgery
Using your NHS App or account
You can order a repeat prescription using the NHS App or by logging into your account on the NHS website.
If you’re asked to nominate a pharmacy, you can only nominate a high street pharmacy.
You’ll be able to collect your medicine in person when it’s ready. Some high street pharmacies also deliver.
