Repeat prescriptions will only be provided during a consultation with your doctor.
Prescriptions are written with the necessary repeats by the doctor to last you until your next review. Before you run out please make an appointment with your doctor well in advance for a review of your condition. If you do run out, we cannot put you in as an emergency; however your chemist will usually advance a few days of tablets to tide you over to your next appointment.
Medicare rules as well as best practice guidelines disallow issuing prescriptions without the patient present, and experience shows us such appointments offer poor medical service.
