Repeat Prescriptions

How to Order a Repeat Prescription

Patients may request repeat prescriptions in the following ways:

PLEASE REMEMBER TO ALLOW 48 HOURS NOTICE for the prescription to be processed and remember to list the medication you require and state the destination of the prescription e.g whether the prescription will be collected from the surgery or is to be sent to one of the named pharmacies. You can of course send a stamped addressed envelope for the prescription to be posted to you.

Message in a Bottle

The Message in a Bottle Scheme is supported by Help the Aged, Bath & North East Somerset Council and the Police. The scheme is designed for elderly patients to keep a record of any medication they are taking, in case Emergency Services or other Care Agencies need to access their home.

Your details are stored in a clearly labelled plastic contained, which is kept in your fridge. Stickers to indicate you use the scheme should be displayed on your window or door.

Please ask at Reception for a ‘Message in a Bottle’ kit.
