Prescriptions

Patients on long-term medication can order repeat prescriptions in the following ways:

  • In person - drop your repeat slip (which is the right hand side of your prescription) in at reception or at the pharmacy in Lauder with the required items clearly marked.
  • By post - send it to us with a stamped addressed envelope if you want it posted back to you.
  • On-line Patient Access - via the link at the top of this page. This is the preferred option to order your repeat prescriptions.  You can now register for Patient Access to on-line appointment booking and prescription requests. Please complete the application form below or collect one from Reception to register and if successful your application will be approved and you will receive your log on details.

We prefer patients not to telephone as it takes up a phone line when someone in urgent need could be trying to access a doctor.  If you need to speak to someone about your repeat medications, please phone the Practice which you usually attend (Stow or Lauder) after 11am.

Once you have requested your medication please allow 6 working days before your medication can be collected either at the Lauder Pharmacy or Stow Health Centre Dispensary.

Dispensing

  • Lauder -  there is a Pharmacy in Lauder;  telephone number 01578 722302
  • Stow - the Stow Health Centre has a Dispensary where you will be able to collect your medications.

Medication Reviews

Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a Doctor or our Practice Nurse at least once a year for a review of your regular medications. When your annual review is due a printed or hand written notification should appear on your prescription repeat slip.

We would be very grateful if you could book an appropriate appointment at the soonest opportunity to enable us to perform this review and to make sure you remain on the correct medication. Please contact the Practice if you have any concerns or questions about your repeat medication.
