Repeat Prescriptions

If you are on regular medication and eligible for repeat prescriptions you can order in a number of ways:

  • By hand - drop your repeat slip in at reception with the required items clearly marked.
  • By post - send it to us with a stamped address envelope if you want us to post it back to you.
  • By telephone - to our dedicated repeat prescription number 0141 557 6175.
  • On-line - by activating your online access. Please speak to a member of staff.

Please note that for regular repeat medication the practice requires 48 hours to have these ready for you. That is two full working days and does not include the weekend when we are closed.

Any other requests, i.e. not routine repeats listed on your prescription re-order form, will usually take longer than 48 hours to process.

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications and notification should appear on your repeat slip.

Please ensure that you book an appropriate appointment to avoid unnecessary delays to further prescriptions.
