Prescriptions

Most patients who are on regular medication will be able to request repeat prescriptions without the need to see a doctor. The most efficient and accurate way of ordering a repeat prescription is to use the right hand side of a previous prescription order form, as this will help to ensure that errors are not made. However, it is also possible to order repeat prescriptions by:-

  • PHONE - this service is only available between 10am-12pm and 2-4pm.  Ring the usual surgery number (01458 833666) and select option 4.
  • POST – sending a letter or the repeat medication side slip request form to the surgery. Remember to enclose a stamped addressed envelope if you require the script to be posted back to you.
  • IN PERSON – using a repeat medication slip available at the reception desk and posting it in the prescription box, which is situated on the reception desk.
  • FAX – sending a written request by fax to 01458 836150
  • ONLINE – Click here

Patients who are on regular repeat medication and who request their medication before 12pm should be able to pick up their signed prescription from the surgery by 4pm the same day.

If you would like to collect your prescription direct from:

  • Glastonbury Pharmacy, Feversham Lane
  • Boots Pharmacy, 39 High Street, Glastonbury
  • Alliance Pharmacy, 2 High Street, Glastonbury
  • Boots Pharmacy, Street (Vine Surgery)
  • Street Pharmacy
  • Sainsburys Supermarket in Street

Please fill in one of the registration forms that are available either at the pharmacies, or in the surgery. Once your prescription has been processed at the Surgery, the selected pharmacy can collect it from the Surgery.

Please remember to allow extra time if you are collecting your dispensed medication from a pharmacy, as local pharmacies have different arrangements for collecting repeat scripts from the Surgery, and to ensure they have adequate stocks and have time to dispense your items.
