Repeat Prescriptions
We issue one months supply of medicines on each occasion.
We are upgrading to the next phase of the Electronic Prescription Service (EPS) which will mean that almost all of our prescriptions will be processed electronically from 11/03/2020. Electronic prescriptions help save the NHS money and you will receive your prescriptions in the same way as you do now. Read more about the EPS on the NHS website.
Alternative methods for requesting repeat medication include:
- Registering for our online services.
- Posting the completed computer counterfoil in the wooden box in the entrance hall or through the letterbox at the front of the surgery.
- By telephoning the answer machine, available 24 hours a day. Please give your name, your date of birth, your address and the medicines you need in the order printed on the computer counterfoil.
We recommend that you place an order when you have one weeks supply of drugs left.
Please allow 3 working days (3 working days for Aylsham chemist collection) for your order to be ready. This time does not include weekends or Bank Holidays.
Dispensary
The dispensary is open weekdays from 08:00-18.30.
We have a large, well-stocked dispensary and can provide medicines for all our patients who live over one mile from the centre of Aylsham.
