Batch Prescribing
If you are taking a regular medication we are encouraging the issue of 6-months prescriptions each time they are due. This is intended to make our service easier for you and more efficient. This will be discussed at your medication review. You have the right to nominate the pharmacy you wish to pick up your medication from.
Medication Reviews
If you are receiving repeat medication you will be required to have a medication review every 6-12 months depending on the medication you are on. Review is important, to ensure that medication is working correctly (or is not causing a reaction) and to assess whether other medication is still appropriate for you to continue. When your medication review is due the surgery will contact you to make an appointment.
Important
If you do not attend a medication review when requested the practice has the right to only produce weekly prescriptions until a medication review has been performed (this is for your safety).
