repeat prescriptions


HOW DO I....
OBTAIN A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION ?

If you have a condition which necessitates continuing medication, you may be given a repeat prescription slip. The slip should be delivered to the surgery with an indication of the drugs required, at least two clear weekdays prior to the time that you would like to collect your prescription, or your medication if you are a 'dispensing patient'.

All the surgeries can arrange delivery of medication to certain outlying villages for those patients who have difficulty in travelling to the surgery. Please ask for details.

Please take note of any message on your repeat slip. At certain times it will be necessary for you to see the practice nurse or, in some cases, the doctor for a review of your medication. The repeat slip is also used as a small 'notice board' to give useful information or reminders.

Over-the-counter Medicines

The surgeries at Brighstone and Godshill carry some of the more popular over-the-counter medicines which you may purchase without the need for a prescription. If there are any products that you purchase regularly and would like us to carry, please talk to the dispensary staff and we will do our best to accommodate your needs.
