Nominating a pharmacy

You will need to choose a pharmacy to collect your prescription from. We call this nominating a pharmacy.

You can change your nominated pharmacy at any time:

• By using the Find a pharmacy
• At your GP practice
• At any pharmacy that accepts repeat prescriptions

As qualified healthcare professionals, pharmacists can offer advice on minor illnesses such as:

• coughs
• colds
• sore throats
• tummy trouble
• aches and pains

They can also advise on medicine that you can buy without a prescription.

• Find a pharmacy (nhs.uk)

Many pharmacies are open until late and at weekends. You do not need an appointment.

Most pharmacies have a private consultation room where you can discuss issues with pharmacy staff without being overheard.

If you have your prescription delivered, please mark clearly on your counterfoil or if you order via the Internet or Digital TV type in the name of the pharmacy you wish to use. Most pharmacies in the area offer a home delivery service. Please remember that once your prescription has been collected from the surgery, it is not our responsibility to contact the pharmacy if there is a delay in delivery.

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.
