Repeat Dispensing is a new way for you to get your regular prescription.

If you are on the same medication regularly and use the same pharmacy then under this scheme you can get you repeat prescrptions direct from your pharmacy, rather than getting them from your surgery each time.

If you would like to know more about this scheme then please ask your pharmacist or enquire at the surgery where we will be able to give you more information.
