If the GP (doctor) thinks you require a repeat prescription at regular intervals, you will be issued with a prescription often electronically and your pharmacist should give you a repeat order slip. You can order the repeat script by requesting by email or contact a receptionist or leaving it at the reception. A new script will be ready and sent to your chemist electronically (EPS) or for collection (if non-EPS) typically within two working days. If you wish for the script to be returned by post please provide a self-addressed envelope.
