Ordering Medication

The NHS App
Order medication via the NHS App or NHS website, and have them sent to a pharmacy of your choice.

The easiest way to order your medication is by using our online services.
Your Local Pharmacy

About pharmacists
As qualified healthcare professionals, pharmacists can offer advice on minor illnesses such as:
- coughs
- colds
- sore throats
- tummy trouble
- aches and pains
They can also advise on medicine that you can buy without a medication request.
Medication Queries
Please get in touch with the surgery to raise a query about your medication.
Medication Charges and Exemptions
Extensive exemption and remission arrangements protect those likely to have difficulty in paying charges (NHS medication and dental charges, optical and hospital travel costs).
The NHS medication 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. Medication prepayment certificates (PPCs) offer real savings for people who need extensive medication.
When going abroad you can take your NHS medications with you.
Please visit the NHS website for the latest Medication Charges
These charges apply in England only. In Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales medication are free of charge.
