Medication Reviews
Patients on repeat medication will be asked to see a doctor, nurse practitioner or practice nurse at least once a year to review these regular medications .
All repeat prescriptions have a review date printed on the prescription, please ensure you attend for a review atleast a month before this date. This is to ensure your safety on the prescribed medication and to avoid unnecessary delays to further repeat prescriptions for you.
The GP may also occasionally write a message on the right hand side of the prescription script for your attention, please check the script for these messsages.
