What is an NHS Repeat Prescription?
For those who rely on regular medications to manage ongoing health conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, or other chronic illnesses, an NHS repeat prescription allows you to order your medications without needing to visit your GP for a new prescription each time.
However, the traditional process of reordering your prescriptions can be time-consuming, as it typically involves visiting or contacting your GP to request a repeat, followed by waiting for the prescription to be sent to the pharmacy. With our service, we eliminate much of the manual effort required on your part, making the entire process more efficient and hassle-free.
Automated Prescription Requesting
To make managing your medications even easier, Eltham Pharmacy offers an automated prescription requesting service as part of our NHS repeat prescription programme. This service allows us to automatically request your repeat prescriptions on your behalf, directly from your GP surgery. Once your prescription is ready, we’ll ensure that your medication is prepared and waiting for you at the pharmacy, ready for collection or delivery.
This automation takes away the worry of forgetting to reorder your medication or experiencing delays in getting what you need. With automated prescription requesting, you can be confident that your medications will be ready when you need them. Our system tracks when you’re due for a repeat, so you don’t have to constantly remember to request it manually. This is especially useful for those managing multiple medications.
