Repeat Prescriptions

All our repeat prescriptions are on computer and any patient who is on long-term treatment will be given a request slip listing every item they are allowed to have without seeking a doctor. Please request these by ticking which items you require and handing the prescription into the prescription desk or sending it by post. If you would like the prescription returned to you, please enclose a SAE.

The easiest and most efficient way is to sign up to the NHS Wales App to reorder you medication.

You cn aslo continue to use My Health Online to order your repeat prescription, but this sytem is being superseded by the NHS Wales App and will be decommissioned in July 2024.

Please note, we do not take prescription requests by telephone.

Please try not to ask the doctor for a repeat prescription during an ordinary consultation.

Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip. Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.

Medication reviews can also be conducted via the eConsult service here - eConsult medication review   

Hospital Prescriptions

You should contact the department/clinic concerned in order to ensure you are able to collect your medication from the hospital pharmacy. We are unable to convert hospital prescriptions into GP prescriptions and cannot accept them at the reception desk.

Upon hospital discharge you should be supplied with a minimum of at least 7 days worth of medication. We usually recieve an electronic discharge letter if the medication needs to be added to your repeat prescription, or changed.
