Repeat prescriptions can be requested by following methods:-

• Personal Visit
• Online request
• Telephone via the mail box.
• Email – deaneclinic@nhs.net
• Letter

Your request must be received by the surgery no later than 48 hours before you require your prescription.  You can post your request to the surgery, please enclose a stamped self addressed envelope and we will post your prescription back to you. 

After a specific number of repeats, you will be required to see the doctor or nurse to ensure all is well before further supplies are issued.  Any inconvenience caused by this is regretted but we feel this policy is essential to provide the best medical care and safety prescribing to our patients. 

There are certain medicines that will not be issued without seeing the doctor.

Help with NHS costs

In England, around 90% of prescription items are dispensed free. This includes exemptions from charging for those on low incomes, such as:

• those on specific benefits or through the NHS Low Income Scheme
• those who are age exempt
• those with certain medical conditions
• More information is available at NHS Choices

These charges apply in England only. In Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales prescriptions are free of charge.

• Prescription (per item): £9.65
• 12-month prepayment certificate (PPC): £111.60
• 3-month PPC: £31.25

If you will have to pay for four or more prescription items in three months or more than 14 items in 12 months, you may find it cheaper to buy a PPC.

• Telephone advice and order line 0845 850 0030
• General Public - Buy or Renew a PPC On-line

There is further information about prescription exemptions and fees on the NHS website.
