Repeat Prescriptions

All prescriptions are issued at the Doctor’s discretion from Monday to Wednesday 5pm. Please allow 72 hours for your request to be processed. You will only receive a text message if your prescription request has been declined where you will need to contact the surgery for Dr. review.


For your safety, we do not allow Medical Receptionists to take orders for prescriptions by phone, nor can the receptionists complete your medication request form on your behalf.

You will only receive a text if you need to make an appointment/pay for the prescription or if you need to contact the surgery. If no text received, the prescription will have been sent to the pharmacy (within the 24/48 hour timeframe).

Please use the available request form (below) to order your repeat prescriptions. Two days notice is required.

Important Notices

Please note that the Irish College of General Practitioners and the Medical Council advise GP’s to regularly review patients using repeat prescriptions.

Ordinarily, you should see the GP at a minimum of once per year to renew the prescription.

If the prescribing GP notices that you have not attended, your request may be declined, provided for a shorter period than expected and you may receive a message with your prescription advising that you make an appointment.

Please do not use the repeat prescribing service to order one-off items. These requests will be declined. You should talk to the GP about such requirements. The repeat prescription service is to facilitate your supply of stable, agreed medications only.



Covid-19

Due to Covid-19 all prescriptions are being sent directly by secure email to pharmacies. Please always indicate on your request, which pharmacists should receive the prescription.

Repeat prescriptions should be requested 48 hours prior to collection. Prescriptions are only available after 14:30 on the second day after they are requested.
