If you need regular medication you may be offered a repeat prescription, so that you can get medicines without having to see the doctor every time. For certain conditions you will only be allowed a few repeat prescriptions before seeing the doctor. You can obtain repeat prescriptions in several ways:
1) Telephone 0141 632 6310 (after 10.30am and before 3.00pm please) or call in at the surgery and tell us the names of the medicines you need.
2) Write a note with the names of the medicines you need, or tick the items on your repeat prescription list and hand this into us.
3) Order via Vision Online – you need to register for this service please ask reception staff for more information.
4) Order via your local pharmacy
5) Our preferred way to order is via email. This service is being trialled and may be removed at any time. We have set up an email address for all your requests. This mailbox is ONLY for patients and pharmacies to send us prescriptions requests. The email address is ggc.gp49130prescriptions@nhs.scot

When requesting a prescription please ensure you include the following

Please ensure separate email requests are made for each person. i.e do not put a full family prescription request in one message. In the email heading put the patients name and date of birth. We are unable to accept the request if more than one patients details are added to the one email and these will be deleted without action.
Please allow 48 hours for us to action these requests. Please note this may not be 48 hours from you requesting this it is dependent on when this is received by us. Please allow extra time for weekends and holidays.
