A medical professional will issue you repeat prescriptions on
a regular basis. You need to show these repeat prescriptions to fulfil your
medicinal needs. Remember, your doctor will not issue repeat prescriptions for
acute conditions that need a short course of therapy.
Ordering prescription online through Pharmacy Outlet is completely
hassle-free. You need to sign up with Pharmacy Outlet just by setting up a new
account – this is called “nomination”. However, prior to nomination, you need
to talk to your GP practice. After nomination, your GP practice will send your
prescriptions to Pharmacy Outlet, electronically.
Please allow at least 48 hours to Pharmacy Outlet to collect
your prescriptions from your GP practice. This also applies to those repeat prescriptions
that are requested by hospital consultants. If your GP practice wants you to
start with a new prescription medicine urgently, he will either supply you
through the hospital or call the pharmacy to provide you the supply.
If you use a prescription medicine on a regular basis, your
GP practice will give you a repeat prescription form to fulfil your medicinal needs.
Pharmacentric Limited, which is located in Camberley, Surrey,
manages Pharmacy Outlet. If you do not want to order prescriptions online, you
can hand in your repeat prescription form at 40 London Road, Blackwater,
Camberley, Surrey GU17 9AA. The pharmacist will then dispense and deliver your
medicine right to your home for free.
If you want to order prescription online, it is important to
nominate Pharmacy Outlet first. The store can request your repeat prescriptions
by phone, but the NHS Electronic Prescription Service is much easier. Ask your
pharmacist how to order prescription online by calling on 03333 222 400.
It is recommended that you check your repeat prescriptions
carefully before ordering prescriptions online. Let the pharmacist know about the
medicines you are no longer using.
If
you want to change or cancel the nomination, it is important to speak to your GP
and pharmacy first. If you do not inform, your prescriptions will be delivered
to a wrong address.
