You can register with a local pharmacy of your choice and they will order your repeat medications and if you wish collect the prescription from the surgery. You can then collect your medication direct from the pharmacy.

Urgent repeat medicines

Doncaster CCG commissions a community pharmacy service for urgent repeat medicines.

The purpose of this service is to ensure that patients can access an urgent supply of regular prescription medicines when unable to obtain a prescription before the next dose is due, if for example, you have run out of a medicine, lost or damaged your medicines, or left home without them. The aim of this service is to relieve pressure on urgent and emergency care services.

Taking controlled drugs abroad

Patients should obtain a personal licence to enter or leave the UK if they are travelling with controlled drugs listed under schedules 2-4 (e.g. morphine, tramadol, diazepam) for 3 calendar months or more.

The Home Office personal licence application form and detailed information can be found here.
