If you are on long-term medication, you will be given a prescription re-ordering slip.
This allows you to request repeat medication without seeing the doctor every time.
Repeat medication is normally issued in a quantity to provide one or two months' supply.
After a specified number of repeats, you will be required to see the doctor or the nurse for review or any monitoring tests to ensure that all is well before further prescriptions are issued.
If you run out of medication we will do our best to issue you with a prescription as soon as possible.
