Visit 111/Emergency Prescription
Use this service to request a limited emergency supply of a medicine you’ve completely run out of (usually up to 5 days worth).
This must be a medicine you are prescribed regularly, through a repeat prescription, which goes to a pharmacy.
You will be charged your usual prescription fee. If you do not usually pay, it will be free.
When not to use this service
You cannot use this service to get:
- antibiotics for a new or recent problem
- controlled drugs that require identification to collect
- if you usually collect your repeat medication via our dispensary
