If medication is part of your treatment, your doctor will usually give you a repeat prescription during your appointment. You can also request a repeat prescription outside your appointment.

In both cases you’ll need to collect your prescription from the hospital pharmacy.

If you need a repeat prescription outside your appointment, request this at least 7 days in advance. You can either:

Your doctor may need to review your medication before they can issue a repeat.

You should contact the hospital pharmacy 72 hours after you made the request to check if your medication is ready.
