Repeat Prescriptions

Prescriptions

Repeat prescriptions can be given for medications taken regularly, usually on a monthly basis. These are issued together with a computer slip giving details of how many times you may re-order or the review date. Whichever of these comes first is the point at which you must make an appointment to see a doctor or nurse practitioner before a further prescription can be issued.

24 Hour Medicines Collection Machine

Our medicines collection machine is located at the front of our building and is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so you can collect your medicines at a time that suits you.

It’s extremely easy to use:

1. Order your prescription in the usual way

2. When your prescription is ready to collect, you will receive a text message with a unique collection code

3. Visit the surgery within 3 days of receiving the text and collect your prescription from the machine. It’s simple to use – just follow the on-screen instructions.

Managed repeats – if you use the machine to collect, please select your medicines for the following month on your prescription that is dispensed with your medicines and place this in the post box beside the machine.

There will be some medicines, such as fridge items and controlled drugs that we will be unable to put in the machine, but if this is the case, we will inform you.

It is important that you inform us immediately of any change to your mobile number.

Managed Repeats Service

Would you like to us to manage your repeat medications for you? We can offer you a service whereby when you pick up your prescription, you can tell us what you need for the following month and we will give you a date to pick it up, rather than you needing to reorder.

Even if we are unable to dispense to you, we can assist you by sending your repeat prescription to the local pharmacy of your choice. We have daily pick up services from Boots in Stalham.

To sign up for this service or for further information, please enquire with the dispensary.
