Prescriptions
To order your prescription via the telephone, please contact the Medicines order Line on 0115 855 0260 or email ddicb.southmolonlinerequests@nhs.net
If you do not wish to order online, repeat prescription requests can be made using the right-hand side of your prescription by ticking the items you need. If you have more than one repeat prescription, please try to order all your items together. The request can then be posted to us or left in the collection box at reception.
Your new prescription will usually be ready for collection in two working days.
Prescription Fees
Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS prescription and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).
The NHS prescription charge is a flat-rate amount which successive governments have thought it reasonable to charge for those who can afford to pay for their medicines. Prescription prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.
