If you are a new patient please make an appointment to see a doctor before requesting repeat medication.
Non-urgent advice: Notice
Repeat medication can be collected 72 hours (3 working days) after your request has been received.
Herefordshire Prescribing Committee recommends that 28 days should be the usual treatment length for routine repeat prescriptions, and we comply with these recommendations at Fownhope Medical Centre. Where certain medications are only available in larger packs, exceptions to this rule apply, such as some hormone replacement therapies and oral contraceptive pills.
