You are able to request repeat prescriptions:
If the practice is closed and you require medication urgently please visit this link of advice. https://www.nhsinform.scot/self-help-guides/self-help-guide-accessing-medicines
Unfortunately we are unable to accept prescription requests via telephone.
For patients who take a regular dose of medication on a regular basis an automatic prescription service is available. This service is called the Chronic Medication Service (or CMS for short). The CMS service issues regular repeat medication on prescriptions that last for 6 months. They are dispensed by the pharmacy at two monthly intervals. You simply need to go to the pharmacy to collect your prescription. They will order it for you automatically.
If you would like to take advantage of this service please speak to the pharmacy. They must register you for this service so that the surgery can issue you with 6 monthly prescriptions.
Patients on repeat medication may be asked to see a doctor 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.
