You can request repeat medications by one of the following methods:

• Online
  • Via Patient Access – you will need to have a username and password to use this service. Find out how to register.
• By dropping your repeat prescription form into our letterbox
• Providing us with your repeat script and stating:
  • which of the 5 local pharmacies you want to collect your prescription from (please allow 4 working days)
  • if we dispense for you and you will be collecting your prescription from the Dispensary at Windrush Medical Practice (please allow 3 working days)

Please note: Only medications on your repeat form can be issued. Also it is not necessary for you to make an appointment in order to obtain urgent medications which have run out.
