 Important Update: Prescription Ordering Service

Effective from 1 December 2025

We are making some changes to how you order your repeat prescriptions to help improve safety and communication.

Best ways to order:

  • NHS App – the quickest and most secure method
  • Online triage service via our Practice website
  • Prescription post box at the Practice

Our telephone ordering service remains available for vulnerable patients or those unable to use the methods above.


🚫 From 1 December 2025

We will no longer accept prescription requests from third parties, such as community pharmacies and appliance providers.
This change allows us to speak directly with you about your medication, check for any reviews or monitoring that may be due, and ensure your prescriptions are issued safely and appropriately.


💉 Medication Monitoring

Some medications require blood tests or reviews to make sure they are still safe and effective. You may be invited to attend for monitoring before your next prescription is issued.
Please attend these appointments to help us provide you with the best and safest care.

Certain medicines, such as Warfarin, may no longer appear on your repeat list. This ensures we can prescribe the correct dose based on your latest test results.


Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
