How do I request my repeat prescription?
Repeat medications take two working days to process. This may seem like a long time but please remember that we get thousands of medication requests every week. For safety reasons we are not able to process medication requests urgently (with the exception of a few medications such as insulin and certain heart medications). All other requests will be processed in 2 working days. This includes painkillers and antidepressants. Please ensure you leave enough time for your request to be processed and consider ordering 7 days in advance.
