Repeat Prescriptions

Requesting Repeat Prescriptions

Please request your medications at least five working days before they run out.  We ask that all patients sign up to the Electronic Prescribing Service and nominate a pharmacy.  Swanage pharmacies no longer order prescriptions for patients, therefore, to request medication, please do this via the NHS app or sign up for online access with our reception team or put in a written request in our letterbox.   

Ordering Repeat Prescriptions Online

You can order repeat prescriptions quickly and easily online 24 hours a day, seven days a week.  

Order repeat prescriptions online

For more information and details on registering for this quick and convenient service, see how you can Do It Online on our Online Access page:>>

Note: SystmOnline is only available from within the UK. You cannot access SystmOnline from abroad. 

Paper Repeat Prescription Requests

If you are not able to order your repeat prescriptions online, your prescription request can be made in person at the surgery.  Paper requests may be posted through the Practice letterbox outside the surgery front entrance.  The letterbox is checked regularly through surgery opening hours.  Please note that we do not take prescription requests over the phone. 

Pharmacies

Your local pharmacy (chemist) will answer any questions you may have regarding your medication and will be able to provide advice and over the counter treatments for minor ailments.  They can also look after some of your other healthcare needs, and it is worth asking each of them for the details of the services they provide.  Your local paper has details of pharmacies open late on weekdays and on Saturdays, Sundays and Bank Holidays.  Or you can search online using the NHS Pharmacy opening hours page:>>
