Please don’t wait until you have run out of medication before requesting a new prescription. We will need 5 working days (i.e. not Saturday and Sunday or a bank or public holiday), to issue the prescription. For example medication requested early on Monday morning will be ready on Wednesday, late afternoon; medication requested early on the Tuesday morning will be ready on Thursday, late afternoon etc.
If you order your repeat prescription in person or by post and want Elgon Chemist to dispense it, please write ‘TO COLLECT FROM ELGON CHEMIST’ on the top of your repeat request form, before putting it in the repeat request box or posting it to the surgery. This will speed up the process for you as your medication will have been made up and be ready for collection.
