Repeat Prescriptions
Repeat prescriptions are issued at the doctors' discretion and are normally for patients on long-term treatment. Regular reviews are required for all patients on repeat medications. If your review is overdue you may be asked to see a doctor before further medications are issued.
Repeat prescriptions can be ordered online by registering with Patient Access. Please visit our Online Access page for further information.
