HOW
DO I....
OBTAIN
A REPEAT PRESCRIPTION?
If you are on regular medication,
your doctor may arrange for you to have this set up on the computer to avoid you
having to make an appointment each time you need to renew the prescription.
Our prescription ordering line is Livingston 400992. Please use this when
ordering or querying your prescriptions; this leaves the routine lines free for
any emergencies. You will be asked to leave your details on our answering machine:
your name, address, date of birth and the names of the medication you require.
If you would prefer not to speak to the machine, please call between 11.00am and
12 noon when someone will be available to take your call. Alternatively, when you receive your
computerised prescription, you will be given a slip for re-ordering. Please tick
the items you require and put your request in the prescriptions box next to the
reception.
Your prescription will be ready for you to collect 48 hours
later (longer at weekends). Alternatively, you can make arrangements to have the
prescription delivered to your pharmacist.
Repeat Sick Lines
If you have an illness which requires regular sick lines, you may not need to see your GP. Phone your doctor's secretary who can advise you what is required.
