Frequently asked questions

Before you register

We can take care of your NHS prescriptions, including repeat or one-off items. You just need to be registered with a GP in England. If you’d benefit from free home delivery and a handy app to request your medicines on the go, our service could be for you.  

We accept prescription prepayment certificates and exemptions, as well as all major payment methods including Apple Pay and Google Pay.

It’s completely free to use our service. We cover the cost of delivery, and your prescription will be sent using Royal Mail's Tracked service. You’ll only pay the standard NHS prescription fee (£9.90 per item as of 1st May 2024) if you pay for your prescriptions.

We’ll ask you for the following information when you sign up:

  • Your name and date of birth

  • Your GP surgery details

  • What medicines you’re prescribed

If you know your NHS number, add this too. It can make the registration process even quicker.

Once you’ve registered, we’ll match your details with NHS database and send you a confirmation email when everything’s ready to place your first order. You can log in and have a look around your account dashboard. Here you can update your delivery preferences and set your reminders. 

Orders and Payment

We recommend placing your repeat prescription order online 10 working days before you need your medicine. This gives plenty of time for us to get approval from your GP before checking, dispensing, and dispatching your items. They’ll then be delivered using Royal Mail Tracked.  

The timeline is often much quicker than this, but 10 working days helps us to make sure you don’t run out.
