How to Order a Repeat Prescription

If you require prescriptions for regular and continuing treatment, it is not always necessary to see the doctor each time.

Repeat prescriptions are computerised and the tear-off slip at the side will indicate the date your review is due.

Give 96 hours’ notice. Requests for prescriptions cannot be taken over the phone by the practice.

However, requests can be made via Prescription Ordering Direct (POD)

Visit – www.shroptelpod.nhs.uk or by calling 0333 358 3509
