By planning ahead, you can make sure you are prepared for Christmas and the New Year. Please order repeat medication in plenty of time so the surgery and the pharmacy have enough time to get prescriptions ready for you. We need at least 48 hours to process your request and the pharmacy will also need time after this to get your prescription ready.
