This is only available if you use the same medication regularly, ie in the same quantity and frequency every day, and not on an ‘as required’ or variable basis. It would allow 6 months (occasionally a year) of prescriptions to be given to you in one go, to use at the same Pharmacist. For the relevant period you would not need to contact the surgery for your prescriptions. Please ask reception for a leaflet explaining this.
