Repeat Prescriptions

When ordering repeat prescriptions we would like you to use one of the following:

• Using EMIS Access (See the 'online services' section) to order repeat medication.
• Bring the sideslip from your prescription to the surgery and place it in the box provided. Please remember to tick the items required.
• By e-mail: wargraveprescriptions@nhs.net

Please try to order all the items you require at the same time as this not only saves the receptionist time but yourself also.

Please allow 48 hours for your request to be processed. 

We can arrange for the prescription to be sent to the chemist of your choice, so please write the name of the chemist on your slip or state when ordering.

If you are going on Holiday please allow 5 working days to allow for queries.

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.

Prescriptions Charges and Exemptions

Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).

The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive Governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines.  Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.
