HOW DO I....
Obtain A Repeat Prescription?

PLEASE DO NOT ASK THE DOCTOR FOR A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION; ALWAYS ORDER YOUR REPEAT PRESCRIPTION FROM RECEPTION.

Please post, fax, e-mail or hand-deliver (place in the box on the reception desk) your repeat prescription request and allow two working days for it to be issued.

We are not able to take prescription requests by telephone.

Remember to give the chemist enough time to dispense the medicines.

We have to review your need for a prescription or check your condition from time to time, so you may be asked to make an appointment with the doctor or nurse. For example, you will need a regular check if you have high blood pressure or asthma.

Keep the tear-off portion on the right hand side of your previous prescriptionsomewhere safe so you can use it to re-order your medications.

There are four easy ways to order your repeat prescription:

1. Ordering Your Repeat Prescription By e-mail

This is the easiest way of all.
If you want to e-mail your request, please fill in the details on the repeat presciptions form below.

2. Ordering Your Repeat Prescription By Fax

If you want to fax your request the fax number is (01273) 462109. Please remember to put all the details on the fax. We prefer you to use our fax forms, which are available from reception.

3. Ordering Your Repeat Prescription By Post

About two weeks before your prescription is due to run out, take the following actions:

• On the tear-off portion, tick the drugs which you want to re-order.

• Tick the name of the local chemist's shop where you wish to collect your drugs.

• Post the form to: Repeat Prescriptions, The Lyons Practice, Shoreham Health Centre, Pond Road, Shoreham-by-Sea BN43 5US.

• Allow about one week, then collect your medicines from the chemist's shop.

• Or if you want your prescription to be posted to you, please include an SAE.

4. Ordering Your Repeat Prescription In Person

As above, but drop the request in the box on top of our practice reception desk.
Your script will be ready within two working days so there is no need to phone and check if it is ready. If you feel you have to phone, please do so after 11.00am.
