- Authority scripts;
- Repeat scripts for antibiotics;
- Medications which can only be prescribed after a consultation eg. Pain medication for acute conditions;

If you have not seen your Doctor in the last 6 months, you will be required to make a GP Consultation to discuss scripts.

If this is physically impossible, please speak with our Nurses and they will be able to advise on the other options available.
