Prescriptions & Medication

We offer a wide range of services relating to prescriptions and medication…

Dispensing

We dispense NHS and private prescriptions on a walk-in basis and may be able to order special items if required.

Electronic Prescription Service

This pharmacy offers the Electronic Prescription Service, which allows you to choose or “nominate” a pharmacy to get your medicines or appliances from. Your GP then sends your prescription electronically to the place you have nominated, this means:

If you collect your repeat prescriptions from your GP you will not have to visit your GP practice to pick up your paper prescription, saving you time.
You will have more choice about where to get your medicines from because they can be collected from a pharmacy near to where you live, work or shop.
You may not have to wait as long at the pharmacy as your repeat prescriptions could be prepared before you arrive.

Free prescription deliveries

We can order your prescription monthly and deliver them to your door.  We can still deliver your prescriptions free of charge if you choose to order yourself.

Free NHS electronic prescription service

Funded by the NHS, prescriptions can be sent electronically from your GP surgery securely to our pharmacy.

Free NHS New Medicine Service

NMS service is now offered to patients who have been prescribed a new medicine.  We contact patients who sign up, to find out how they get on with their new medication.

Unwanted Medicines

We can dispose of any unwanted medications safely on your behalf.

Repeat dispensing

This is a scheme where the doctor can issue batches of prescriptions for up to a year for suitable patients.

Please ask for information about this service.
