Repeat Prescriptions
If you take regular medications then we attach a list of your medicines to each prescription. Use the latest list to let us know which medicines you require. Any amendments to the repeat prescription list can only be made with the doctor’s permission and will take longer to process.
You can then get your request to us in three ways as follows:
- Online - please click on the link at the top of this page to request a repeat prescription online (please note the contraceptive pill cannot be ordered online - this prescription is obtained from the Practice Nurse when you attend your annual review appointment)
- Pop it into the box inside or outside the entrance to the practice.
- Post it to the practice including a stamped addressed envelope if you want the prescription posted back.
This following NHS Highland video explains the reasons why changes may be being made to some prescribed medicines https://youtu.be/PU0hUB36elY.
It is no longer possible to request repeat prescriptions over the phone.
Some of the pharmacies are able to accept your repeat prescription request and bring it to the practice. Check with your local pharmacy whether they offer this service.
Always indicate whether you will be collecting your prescription or wish your prescription to be forwarded to a particular pharmacy. Please allow 2 working days before collecting your prescription from the surgery.
If you request your prescription to be forwarded to a particular pharmacy, please allow an extra day before collecting from them as your chemist may not collect from us on a daily basis.
Same day requests place a considerable strain on our system so please help us to help you by ordering in advance before your medication runs out.
Attached Pharmacy
There is an independent partnership (Lloyds Chemist) next door to the surgery. They are open from
09:00 – 18:00 weekdays and 09:00 – 12:00 on Saturdays.
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.
Please allow two full working days for prescriptions to be processed and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.
