Repeat Prescriptions

PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR PRESCRIPTION REQUEST VIA THIS WEBSITE. 

You can request medication by using the following e-mail: prescriptions.roathwell@wales.nhs.uk

Requests may be made by post (please enclose a stamped addressed envelope) and in person at reception. Alternatively you can arrange with your local pharmacy to order and collect your prescription.

Repeat prescriptions are not taken by telephone. 

Please allow Three full working days for prescriptions to be processed by the surgery and remember to take weekends and bank holidays into account.

Repeat prescriptions can be provided for periods of up to 6 months by prior arrangement with your doctor.  Request may be made by post (please enclose a stamped addressed envelope) or in person to the receptionist staff.  Repeat prescriptions are not taken by telephone.  The prescriptions can be collected 72 hours later at the reception.

If you or someone you care for use the same medicines regularly you may not need to get a new prescription every time you need more medicine. Instead, you may be able to benefit from Batch Repeat Dispensing from your pharmacy. This means you won’t have to visit the surgery or make an appointment to see the doctor, practice nurse or practice pharmacist every time you need more medicine.  Talk to either your prescriber (doctor, practice nurse or practice pharmacist) or your community pharmacist who regularly dispenses your prescriptions and ask them if you are suitable for Batch Repeat Dispensing
