Repeat Prescriptions

Each GP surgery or primary care practice will have its own procedure for repeat prescribing but the following rules are common to most, if not all. Patients who are well-known to the practice who have a stable condition like asthma, hypertension or diabetes could be allowed to get a repeat prescription for up to six months. Repeat prescriptions are never given to patients who are not known to the practice and there is probably a blanket ban on repeats for narcotics and other drugs that could be misused as doctors are expected to monitor these drugs carefully.

Please phone or email the receptionists for any repeat prescriptions. The email to use is reception@clevedonmed.co.nz

Please allow 24 hours to process

If you have not been seen within the last 6 months you will be required to come in for your repeat prescription.

These appointments are done with the nurse (mainly Helen) who will perform the necessary clinical examination as well as a blood test if it is warranted.
