What if I Need My Prescription Early?

Sometimes we have various reasons for needing our prescriptions early. Maybe you will be going on a trip, maybe you will be away, or maybe something has happened to your blister pack meaning you need a replacement. Whilst usually, repeat prescription rules indicate that you should reorder your prescriptions up to 7 days before you run out, on occasion, it is possible to get your prescription early. If you need your prescription early, it will be down to your GP to approve or decline your request. It is recommended you speak to him or her about your request to specify the reason why you need your medication early.  

Can I Order an Early Repeat Prescription Online?

The short answer is yes, you can. But since NHS Repeat Prescription Service Rules state that you should order up to 7 days before you need your refill, you should contact your GP ahead of time to arrange any early medication needs. You can request this through us, and we can liaise with your GP on this request, however we also advise if the request is unusual such as an early prescription reorder, that you contact your GP to be sure the prescription request will be approved.
